Metabolize and Antioxidize - the Dark Magic Smoothie

It's no secret that the kids and I drink a smoothie for breakfast at least three times a week.  There is really nothing else that has made as huge an impact on my health as the green smoothie.  (BTW, my favorite green smoothie consists of banana, fresh organic baby spinach, almond milk, and frozen pineapple.)  But there are a zillion green smoothie recipes on the web.  So, I present something slightly different:  the Dark Magic Smoothie.  All that is good in the universe in a glass.




Dark Magic Smoothie - Serves 2-3

Combine in a blender:
flesh of 1 small banana
flesh of 1 small avocado
1/2 c. tart cherry juice
1/2 c. dark brewed coffee, cooled
1/2 c. coconut milk
1/2 c. frozen blueberries (a heaping 1/2 cup!)
1 oz. dark chocolate
a couple handfuls of ice

Delish!!!

P.S. Sorry it's been a couple weeks since I posted last... I do have some projects in the works, but I haven't finished anything, and I haven't made any other original recipes.  (I'm going through a bunch of pinterest recipes now.)  Coming soon:  Flower Pillow Tutorial!!!!
