Warm Chocolate Green Smoothie

I love my green smoothie, but on a chilly morning, like today, I prefer something a little more warming!! Try my warm chocolate green smoothie - you wouldn't know there are any greens in it & its actually really yum AND rather good for you!

Ingredients:

2-3 medjool dates (depending on how sweet you like it)

1/4 tsp macha green tea powder (wake up call!!)

1 large heaped tablespoon raw cacao powder (did you know raw cacao powder has 20 times more antioxidants than blueberries ... and 4 times that of dark chocolate and if you choose a raw variety all the nutrients are still in tact - whats not to love about it...)

1 cup milk of your choice (I use almond or hemp)

pinch of cayenne pepper (gives it a little kick and helps your circulation - keeping you warm)

A couple of kale leaves or a handful of spinach (or any other green leafy veg)

optional: you could add half a banana for some added sweetness and if you like a thicker consistency to your smoothie

Put in in a high speed blender fro 2-3 mins until its all whizzed up and warm!!
