Blackberry and Fig Smoothie

Today's smoothie was so good I had to post it. It's full of antioxidants in both fruit and vegetables as well as fiber and protein in chia seeds and almond butter. Superfood supplements round it out for a power packed delight. Smooth and creamy, it's a delicious start to a day and will carry you well into the afternoon. I took a dance class, went rock climbing, and rode by bike twenty miles on it. See what you can do!


Blackberry and Fig Smoothie:

1 c. spinach leaves
1 c. blackberries
5 dried black mission figs
4 medjool dates, pitted
3/4 c. coconut milk
2 T. raw almond butter 
1 T. cacao powder
1 T. chia seeds
1/4 t. pomegranate powder or seeds
1/4 t. maca powder

Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender. Garnish with a tablespoon of cacao nibs.
