Ingredients
12oz water
1.5 medjool dates (if you use regular dates I would use 2-3)
1/4 avocado
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I use SunWarrior)
2 tsp spirulina (I use Organic Burst)
1 TBS Cacao (not coco, it should be 100% cacao, no sugar)
1 tsp instant coffee or espresso
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Directions
1) Blend all the ingredients until smooth.
Recipe adapted from the Cheerful Chocolate recipe in Oh She Glows Cookbook
Post workout nutrition is important for muscle repair and recovery. This smoothie has everything you need protein, fats and carbs. I remember Lara telling me about the post workout smoothie she drinks. I tried it and let me tell you, it’s pretty damn delicious so I wanted to share it with you. You can definitely make it the night before and then drink it within 30 minutes of finishing your workout. Enjoy.
