Chocolate Covered Berry Smoothie

Chocolate and berries are a match made in heaven. I actually love snacking on chocolate and berries together for a healthy dessert- the inspiration for this healthful smoothie.

This smoothie is a powerhouse of superfoods! Berries are packed with Vitamin C, anti-aging antioxidants and fiber! I also used cacao powder for this recipe which has been shown to decrease inflammation, reduce blood pressure and improve blood flow to your brain! This smoothie is packed with healthy fats, protein, fiber and complex carbohydrates (the good kind) to help keep you full, satiated and energized!
