The Great Hemp Smoothie

Delicious, full of protein, and easy to make.

Ingredients:

3 cups Oatly milk or Silk Organic Unsweetened Soy milk

6 Tbsp. hemp hearts

1 Tbsp. cacao (or cocoa) powder

1 1/2 Tbsp. maple syrup

1 tsp. vanilla

3 cups ice

Put all the ingredients in a blender, except the ice, and bend it for 30 secs. Add the ice and blend for an additional 30 secs.

Serves 3

Protein 9 grams per serving

Tips: Make a cup of coffee with 2/3 cup of water and add it to the smoothie for a coffee mocha. Fruit is also a nice addition. I particularly like 1 frozen banana, 1/3 cup dried cherries, or 1/3 cup mixed berries. For a thicker smoothie, add more ice.
