It satisfies every time! It could be my best creation yet. (Sorry for the grainy pic... my new-to-me zoom lens is finicky with lower light.) I am going to include the recipe b/c I feel the need to share my creation. Whenever I have a desire for something sweet, I go running for my Vitamix and whip up a smoothie. This one seems to satisfy my cravings every time.
1/4 cup natural almonds (not roasted) or raw almond butter
2 pitted dates
1/2 tsp vanilla
pinch sea salt
1 tbsp coconut butter (not to be confused with coconut oil). My fave is by Artisana.
1 1/2 tbsp raw cocoa or cocoa nibs or 8-10 cocoa pods
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup spinach leaves
3-4 mint leaves
*extra agave nectar to taste
Enjoy!!!
