Recipe Notes

  • This smoothie is delicious with a handful of berries also!
  • Psyllium husk is a fiber supplement often used as a binder in grain-free baking. Inulin is a prebiotic powder with a mild sweet flavor. Both are optional but add staying power to the smoothie. Sprout Living makes a great inulin powder.
Deep chocolate, almond butter, prunes, and a stack of satiating add-ins for the perfect breakfast smoothie. Hearty, filling, and ready in 10 minutes in the blender.
