#Chocolate Fig #Smoothie

All ingredients are certified #organic

 

1-1/4 cup cashew milk

2 scoops chocolate fudge #vegan protein powder

1-1/4 Pines Wheat Grass powder from @wheatgrass_people

3 frozen figs from TraderJoes

As always, #ckscooking :-)

 

Thanks to CK Hall* for the recipe! Certainly, you could make this without the figs and can use other kinds of milk, but this a beautiful way to add both figs and chocolate to your green drink, especially for kids who are picky eaters.

 

When using superfood powders, always source your ingredients separately to examine them. For example, with greens already mixed with chocolate powder, you do not know the color of the greens. With Pines' green foods, you are guaranteed great color, nutrient density and freshness.

 

Another way to get more green into picky kids is to let them off the hook if they will swallow a serving of #PinesWheatGrass tablets, Pines #GreenDuo capsules or mix stevia-sweetened #MightyGreens powder into a drink.

 

Pines is the only company using amber glass bottles with special metal caps so they can remove the oxygen from each bottle. Without oxygen, devitalization caused by plastic containers or paper packets cannot occur. Research dating back more than 80 years proves that the packaging used by Pines is the only kind that protects sensitive green food nutrients.

 

The nutritional value of poorly packaged products results in Pines providing much more nutrition per dollar spent. Pines can cost as little as 25 cents for a serving nutritionally equivalent to nearly $2 worth of spinach or kale.

 

For 40 years Pines has grown and harvested organic #wheatgrass naturally, outdoors, through often-freezing winter temperatures. They harvest at the special once-a-year jointing stage in the early spring when the grass is 7 to 10 inches tall.
