MINT CHOCOLATE SMOOTHIE RECIPE
This mint chocolate smoothie recipe is a MUST TRY!
Although I'm partial to tropical smoothie recipes - makes me feel like I'm on vacation - sometimes I feel like chocolate in the morning!
When this type of craving hits my favorite way to indulge is with a rich, chocolate smoothie that is also full of nutritious superfoods.
The best of both worlds, right?
My go-to is this minty, chocolatey smoothie that has a little bit of crunch!
To get that super minty flavor that also has powerful healing benefits, I use therapeutic grade Peppermint Oil by DoTERRA. Note: If you want to get this oil for wholesale price use this link and click SHOP.

In addition to my smoothies, I use peppermint oil for a natural way to help with a variety of health issues I deal with such as headaches, fatigue, and to congestion during a cold.
The best plant-based protein powder that I use and recommend most is by Philosophie. I love their Green Dream but also have used the berry and chocolate flavors. This is a very clean protein without added sweeteners and there's also superfoods like spirulina to help detox the body.
I also use Collagen building peptides (vegan) to help my body in producing its own collagen, but of course you can use whatever you have or omit - this is optional but included in the nutrition calculation.
Btw, you can get 20% off Philosophie and Sunwarrior products with the promo code "BlenderBabes". YAY!
