Smoothies are a great way to pack in as much nutrition as possible. The raw cacao in this recipe makes it feel like a real treat, but remember that cacao is incredibly rich in antioxidants, and is packed with other nutrients, such as iron, magnesium and calcium. It is also a natural mood elevator and anti-depressant, so can really help to kick-start your day!
As with all smoothie recipes, feel free to experiment with the ingredients to find your perfect blend.
