Chocolate Breakfast Smoothie
A tasty, healthy, smoothie with chocolate made in the Vita-Mix to start your day off right:
1 apple, cored and quartered
1 small tangerine, peeled
1 cup frozen papaya chunks
1 cup frozen dark sweet pitted cherries
2 TBSP raw cocoa powder
1/2 cup water
3-4 oz baby spinach or kale (added after the fruit is blended a bit to allow room)
Blend the fruit, cocoa powder and water using the tamper at a lower speed at first. When there's room, turn off the machine, then add the greens, then blend on high until smooth.
Now this is my idea of a chocolate "milkshake". Delicious!
A happy, healthy holiday to all.
