Ingredients
  

  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 cup spinach
  • 1 cup berries frozen
  • 1/4 cup aloe vera gel filleted
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds ground
  • 1 tbsp flaxseed ground
  • 2 tbsp cacao
  • 1 cup water

Instructions
 

  • Prep the aloe vera by removing the hard, spine edges on either side of the leaf. Carefully slice away the aloe vera leaf’s skin to get the thick, clear gel at the centre. Cut the gel into smaller pieces than rinse with water. Make sure to wash off all the latex residues (yellow sticky liquid), then add clean aloe vera gel into your smoothie blender. 
  • Wash spinach then add to the blender.
  • Ground your seeds either in the coffee grounder or food processor. Then add to the blender. It’s best to use fresh ground seeds to maximise nutritional absorption of the sources. It also gives a smoothie nice creamy texture. 
  • Add peeled banana, frozen berries, raw cacao and water.
  • Blend until smooth. Serve immediately!
