Cherry Chocolate Protein Smoothie


This smoothie gets the antioxidants from the cherries, the protein from the protein powder and nut butter, the healthy fats from the coconut milk and avocado, and the omega 3's from the chia-seeds.  But, this smoothie is basically a healthy milkshake; it's that good!  It's nutritious, balancing, and insanely delicious and satisfying.

But good luck enjoying your full portion if you have cute little food thieves hangin' around. ;)
