There is nothing quite like a scoop of mint chocolate ice cream on a hot summer day. Unfortunately, ice cream is not the healthiest way to relax and cool off.
This recipe combines delicious chocolate protein with cooling mint for a tasty and healthy summer treat.
Not only do the mint leaves pack a powerful antioxidant punch, but mint also helps improve digestion, boost liver function, and lower body temperature (yep, eating mint actually makes you cool)!
The avocado adds a creamy consistency while providing a healthy dose of fat!
I love this smoothie after a long day in the heat when I need some nutrition but don’t feel like eating a meal.
