Have you ever met someone who just seems to be their happiest in the morning? Meanwhile, you on the other hand have to execute an internal argument to pry yourself out of bed. Some people do coffee or even green tea in the morning to get their days going. However, I'm not a big coffee or tea drinker, but I like the idea of something to stimulate the brain and the body in the morning. Enter my chocolate smoothie bowls...
The cacoa is the main ingredient that makes this bowl a great energy boosting treat because as you may know it is a stimulant. Made from bananas, this bowl is my newly found favorite way to combine my post workout carbohydrates, protein, while getting two daily servings of fruit and energy to kick start my day.
Blend the following ingredients
- 1 frozen banana
- 1-2 tbsp. raw cacao powder
- 1 scoop protein powder- I use a powder that is high in protein and low in carbohydrates
- 2 tbsp. Greek yogurt
- 1 oz almond milk
- 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 handful cacao chips or cacao nibs
