Tips

This isn't a protein smoothie masquerading as a chocolate shake. But I am trying to maximize my nutrition, especially now that I am working out. I might have to train myself to like these but it wasn't so bad that I couldn't drink it.


Directions

Put coconut water and a handful of spinach in blender. Blend until smooth. Add more spinach. Repeat until all of spinach is blended. Repeat with kale, chopped carrots, chopped celery, and grated ginger adding a little at a time and blending. Add lime juice to taste. Add 2 tbsp of hemp protein powder and blend. Add water to make it the consistency you desire. Add chia seeds. Let it sit a few minutes if you want your chia seeds to gel and make this thicker.
