Recipe of the Week! - Green Goddess Smoothie

This is a great one for the morning if you're in a hurry or want something to energize you before a work out! There are a ton of recipes out there for green smoothies so I recommend experimenting.

Green Goddess Smoothie
1 cup coconut water
3/4 cup filtered water
1 handful of ice cubes
1 handful spinach
1 banana
½ tbs of Spirulina powder (Find a Whole Foods or Earthfare - one bottle lasts a long time!)
2 tbs Cacao powder (NOT Cocoa powder, this is the raw form before all the sugar is added)
1 heaping tbs of Almond Butter

Pop all the ingredients in a blender and smooth away!

Note: If you prefer a thicker smoothie add more ice and less filtered water. Throw in some blueberries for a nice twist! If you don't care for Spirulina you can omit but add some extra spinach for nutrients.
