MEXICAN HOT CHOCOLATE
We love taking classic drinks and re-creating them with our own healthy flair. We crave a good Mexican Hot Chocolate when it’s chilly outside, so it was inevitable that we’d have to find a way to throw handfuls of leafy greens in it! Serve this warm or chilled; either way, you will be pleasantly surprised when you drink this recipe without even noticing the leafy greens, which are packed with antioxidants and protein. Win-win!
This green smoothie recipe is from our book: Simple Green Smoothies: 100+ Tasty Recipes to Lose Weight, Gain Energy & Feel Great in Your Body!
