Chocolate and cherries have always been synonymous to Valentine’s Day. This sweet, decadent tasting smoothie lets the flavor of the chocolate and cherries shine!
This delicious chocolate concoction tastes like dessert, but is deceptively healthy. There’s no added sugar or salt, and (of course) zero cholesterol. It packs 31% of your daily fiber needs, as well as being a rich source of Vitamin C (25%),Vitamin D (7%), calcium (26%), iron (16%), and potassium (14%). Plus, many people swear the anti-inflammatory properties of cherries help with different types of arthritis and post-workout pain!
Feel like making this smoothie even healthier? Add a handful of baby spinach – I promise you won’t be able to taste it! Or add half a scoop of protein powder – the chocolate, cherries, and banana will cover up any bitterness nicely.
