Healthier Chocolate: Cacao Nibs & Cacao Powder
To boost the extra chocolaty flavor of this shake, cacao nibs and cacao powder are added to give it bursts of cocoa flavor. Both of these ingredients are a great alternative for chocolate lovers because they have substantially less sugar than regular chocolate. In addition, they’re incredibly rich in antioxidants, which help reduce inflammation and fight free radicals to help keep you well. Nourishing your body and satisfying your chocolate cravings has never been easier!
Satisfying Healthy Fats: Avocado
The next ingredient in this recipe gives a smooth, creamy texture to this shake, while being a superfood for your health. Not only are avocados incredibly tasty, they’re a great source of essential vitamins C, E, K, and B6, magnesium and potassium, and fatty acids that support bone health and strong immunity.
The omega-3 fatty acids in avocados not only promote a healthy heart, but they also keep you full and satiated, so you’re less likely to reach for unhealthy, sugar and carb-filled snacks throughout the day.
