Here’s what Tracy says ...
This cocoa-berry smoothie recipe with chia seeds and almond milk hits the spot on a warm summer day. Raw cacao (chocolate) adds minerals and antioxidants while chia seeds provide a super dose of omega-3s.
(If you can’t find chia seeds in your area, you can always order them online or you can use flax seeds instead.)
You can always add greens to this smoothie. Go ahead and toss in some kale, dandelion or whatever dark leafy greens you have on hand. You’ll boost the mineral content even further.
If you’ve never had pure, raw cacao powder, then you’ll be surprised at just how bitter it is. However, it is sweetened up beautifully by the banana and berries in this recipe. While cacao is loaded with antioxidants, it is also a stimulant so if you are sensitive to coffee, you might want to skip the cacao and use cocoa or carbo powder instead.
