Chocolate energy boosting smoothie

This drink is often my go to before work. 
The cacao and maca give the brain and body a "feel good" kick and its freaking awesome for energy. The cashews add in some fat to help feel full for longer. 

2 Tbsp Cashews
1 tbsp Cacao
1-2 Medjool dates
1-2 ripe bananas frozen
Extra nutrient options
Maca powder 
Beetroot powder
Green powder
Coconut for extra fat

Pre soak cashews & dates (overnight or 6 hrs). Rinse. Combine ingredients in your blender and buzz until smooth. 


Tips
Health foods can be expensive, hunt around and find the best value for money with powders. I purchase Cacao and Maca from here 

Don't get worried about buying all the "health powders" at once, have a look around at costs and benefits of each and decided what works for you.

Some stores have over ripe bananas at reduced prices. I buy these and freeze. 

If you can source organic bananas this is optimal to reduce exposures to chemicals.
