Almond Butter Coconut Power Smoothie

This smoothie is one of my favorites to make before a family hike, a day of skiing, kid sports or a busy day at work.  It fuels our bodies with healthy fats, protein and fiber to keep us full of energy for hours - and it’s delicious.

For an added boost- add a scoop of your favorite protein powder.  I enjoy Truvani's Organic Plant Based Vanilla Protein Powder
