Smile Super Chocolate Breakfast Smoothie!

OK...I've made one of these every single morning for breakfast this week, and a few times for dinner too! I am usually NOT a morning person, but this thing has me bouncing off the walls! Try it, and tell me what you think!

Place into the VitaMix...

8 ice cubes
1/2 Cup raw cashews
1 Large ripe banana
25 Cacao beans
1 Teaspoon maca powder
1 Teaspoon mesquite powder
1 Tablespoon raw agave
1/4 Cup water

Run the VitaMix for 60-90 seconds on high speed. You want the cashews and cacao beans to be pureed completely.

With the ingredients listed above, the smoothie will be nice and thick...like a chocolate shake! Add more water for a thinner consistency.

Wow, this could be dangerous! This could totally derail my whole morning fruit smoothie routine. Maca? Are you sure it's OK to do that in the morning? I mean, sometimes I do have to stand up and walk around with other people!

ooooolala!

This sounds like my kind of drink.
I love smoothies and I love superfood!
I've been drinking Ginger's "Best Coffee Ever" virtually every day.
This will give me something new to try... maybe I'll have BOTH!

Thanks for sharing it with us.

I'm lucky enough to have a co-op in town that sells it in bulk. I've seen it sold online at many places, though.

Raw Love-

I get mine from Natural Zing. They have tons of superfoods- I looked around for a bit online and their prices seem good as well.
