This Superfood Mint Chocolate Chip Smoothie is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory superfoods, from cacao and cacao nibs, to gut-healing cauliflower and iron-rich spinach. The frozen cauliflower adds creaminess without you needing to add a banana! And the coconut is a healthy fat that helps your body absorb all of the nutrients from the mint and spinach. The cacao nibs make you chew your smoothie, which slows down your consumption and creates mindful eating.
I love a Pear and Almond Tart for dessert, but it’s not an everyday indulgence. So, to enjoy one of my favorite desserts, I made a smoothie version that I can enjoy as breakfast, as a light and simple dessert on a weekday evening, or as an afternoon pick-me-up! It comes together in less than 5 minutes, and is incredible for digestion, as well as for keeping energy levels up and stable 😊

Ever heard that wheat grass is too fibrous to use in a blender, so you have to buy special equipment or rely on a local smoothie joint? Luckily, you actually can make wheat grass juice in a blender with an ingredient you definitely have access to: WATER. You’ll love how easy and inexpensive it is to make! I like to freeze the juice to add to smoothie :)
