Chocolate covered strawberry smoothie
Ingredients
- 2 cups spinach
- 1 cup almond milk
- 8 frozen strawberries
- 1 tbsp ground flax
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- ice
- stevia, to taste
The verdict? Good, but not as fulfilling as I enjoy. It was actually pretty watery. Now I understand why it's important to use a banana as a base. I do, however, think this mix would be fabulous in oats. Hm.
Now, I'll wait for the sweet potato to finish baking (part of dinner!) and then go for a run. I tried a new morning yoga sequence (from Yoga Today) and enjoyed it a lot, so hopefully I'll begin to get out of my yoga rut soon.
you know; I love strawberries; but I'm always disappointed when I add them to smoothies or baked goods; they're too watery and they don't break down well like blueberries.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to agree. I also don't think I like ice in my smoothies because it ends up tasting like watered down juice. :(
