• 3 scoops of plain protein powder

• 2 tablespoon of LSA (ground up linseeds, sunflower seeds and almonds)

• Handful of almonds

• Dash of honey to taste

Blend on high until smooth...and ENJOY!

This smoothie has it all.  Protein, carbohydrates, fiber and good fats.  LSA is packed with fiber and good fats like omega 3 and 6.  Almonds contain protein, omega 3 & 6, fiber and carbohydrates.  And the berries are a natural source of sugar and packed with antioxidants

Double Cacao Smoothie

Blend on high until smooth...and ENJOY! 

I topped this with a cacao and coconut granola

Cacao is the raw form of cocoa, before its heat treated.  The antioxidants found in cacao are something like 360 times that of cocoa.  It is also packed with magnesium! Magnesium is great for cramps and sore muscles.

This is my favourite smoothie to make, there isnt a lot of nutritional value but it tastes amazing! Great when you feel like something sweet :) Mesquite powder helps to stableize blood sugar and is rich in minerals such as calcium, magnesium and zinc.  It is also packed with protein
