I’m very proud of my two sons for really wanting to start their day out with a delicious green smoothie loaded with green leaves for phytochemicals, calcium, and vitamin C, hemp hearts for protein and omega 3, spirulina for protein, B vitamins, and iron, and fresh fruits. They recognize the benefits and because they look and feel good,
they like sticking to a clean diet. On Fridays, however, Max(my 15 year old) insists on something sweet and chocolatey and thinks that after being good all week he should be rewarded. I am always happy to come up with something super delicious and healthy. The boys, especially Max, love this smoothie because of its creamy, chocolatey, sweet, and nutty flavor. It is very filling and very satisfying and is still loaded with protein, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and omega 3.
