On a recent trip to visit our peeps in SoCal, we stopped by a superfood bar for a quick pick-me-up with a "Warrior" smoothie. Laden with nutritious greens and sweetened with dates, it was a refreshing way to reboot the system that really did make me feel more like a warrior. Whenever the head begins to get cloudy, or the body begins to feel sluggish, the Warrior is a great way to cleanse. So, now I've been making these at home.
Warrior Smoothie
Ingredients:
4 cups kale or spinach
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 apple (cored)
1 frozen banana
4 dates
1 tablespoon almond butter
1 apple (cored)
1 frozen banana
4 dates
1 tablespoon almond butter
*You may add protein powder for a boost if desired.
Directions:
Add almond milk to the blender, then add the greens. Place all remaining ingredients on top. Turn on the lowest speed first, then gradually increase to top speed until smooth and frothy. Dilute with water as needed.
A fabulous way to use up those greens past their prime in the fridge!
