This Chocolate Almond Coconut Smoothie is like having a Mounds Bar for breakfast, only much healthier! It’s chocolatey, coconut-y and just plain D-licious!
I love smoothies! I have one almost daily. They are a super easy way to have a meal on the go or to jump start your morning! Throw all your ingredients into your blender, blend, and enjoy….that’s one easy breakfast! This Chocolate Almond Coconut Smoothie is, by far, the best morning treat you could ask for!
My friend Erin Indahl-Fink, from Delightful E Made, has created a wonderful smoothie recipe book called The Protein Smoothie Bible. (Full disclosure, you can click on that link and buy it directly off Amazon. If you do, I may get a small profit at not extra cost to you.)
The Protein Smoothie Bible has 60 delicious smoothie recipes, all with tons of protein to keep you full and satisfied for hours! Erin also gives you some amazing tips on how to create healthier smoothies and ways to avoid the extra “junk” sometimes found in “healthy” smoothies. It’s a great book people…go get one today!
My favorite smoothie from this book is the Chocolate Almond Coconut Smoothie. With chocolate protein powder and almond butter as two of the main stars, this smoothie is filling and will easily get you from breakfast to lunch! Chocolate, Almond Butter and Coconut…..now you are speaking my language!
There are many other amazing smoothies in The Protein Smoothie Bible; some of our favorites are the Triple Berry Chiller, Pineapple Avocado Winner, and my kids adored the Chocolate Peanut Butter Buddy.
Erin, was gracious enough to allow me to include the recipe for this smoothie in this post, but don’t think that means you shouldn’t check out her new book! While you are drinking our new favorite smoothie, go buy her book today!
Happy Eating! (and blending)
