I love the flavor combination of raspberry and coconut and if you do, too, then you have four coconut ingredient options here!
This is a delicious-tasting healthy pink smoothie. It’s full of Vitamin C, fiber, healthy fats and protein. All of these are not only good for you but will help you feel comfortably full, too, whether you have it for breakfast or as a healthy snack.
The smoothie will serve one as a filling breakfast [or a lunch] and two or three as a snack for when you need a boost of energy to see you through mid morning.
Or how about having 2/3 for breakfast and leaving the other third ready in the refrigerator for when you arrive home from work, starving but still have to make dinner. Much better than snacking on unhealthy, sugar-laden cookies.
Alternately, serve it as a smoothie bowl. To do so, reduce the liquid (skip the water and coconut water for example), blend in the usual way, pour the mix into a bowl and eat with a spoon. You could top it with extra fruit and coconut.
No matter which way you choose to consume it, it’s a good one.
The recipe is a variation on one posted earlier and is based on a recipe from Allie at ThroughHerLookingGlass.
