Nutrient dense cauliflower, spinach, avocado, and sweet potato all blended together in a super delicious chocolate flavored smoothie.
Scale
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sweet potato, cut into chunks (about 1/2 a sweet potato)*
- 1/2 cup cauliflower florets*
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 scoop chocolate or vanilla protein powder
- 1 handful spinach
- 1/4 of an avocado
- 3 tablespoons raw cacao powder
- 2 tablespoons almond or cashew butter
- 3 pitted dates
Instructions
- Several hours prior to making the smoothie, lightly steam the sweet potatoes and cauliflower, then drain well and spread out on a small sheet pan and put in the freezer until frozen. You can prepare extra like I do and keep the excess in gallon-sized freezer bags for the next several times you want to make this smoothie.
- Add all ingredients to a high powered blender or food processor starting with the liquids.
- Blend until smooth and enjoy!
Notes
To make things even easier, I buy bags of frozen cubed sweet potatoes and frozen cauliflower florets to steam and refreeze. Cooking these vegetables before putting them in your smoothie is better for health and digestion.
