Calming Lavender Berry Smoothie
Eat to beat stress! This insanely delicious combination is infused with naturally calming and anti-anxiety ingredients in a blood sugar balancing blend. Although the greens, berries, cashews, and avocado are known to help create a sense of calm, the star of this smoothie is fresh lavender! Take a minute to breathe in the scent, which can instantly soothe your body and ease your mind.
INGREDIENTS
½-1 cup cashew milk (coconut, almond, or hemp work)
1 cup loosely packed fresh spinach
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
¼ avocado
1 cup frozen blueberries
½-1 frozen banana
½ cup cauliflower, pre-cooked and frozen
1 tablespoon fresh lavender, chopped (or ½ teaspoon culinary lavender)*
pinch of sea salt
OPTIONAL ADD-INS: Maca powder, hemp seeds, maqui powder, or lemon zest
Note: Food grade essential oil can be used in the smoothie. With all lavender, start small as too much can take on a soapy flavor!
