Ingredients

  • 1 banana peeled, sliced and frozen
  • 1/2 cup sour cherries frozen
  • handful of both beet greens and Swiss chard about a cup of greens total
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon cacoa nibs
  • 1/4 cups whole almonds
  • 1 to 2 cups coconut almond milk or one or the other

Instructions

  • Throw everything into your blender and let it rip. You'll be better off using a high-powered blender (I love my Blendtec) because the greens are a bit more fiberous than spinach. Process until smooth and enjoy right away.
