Notes
3g net carbs per cup. Makes 2 cups. Serve 1 cup alongside breakfast or 2 cups as a standalone breakfast.
Protein powder is optional.
You can replace the almond milk with coconut milk or seed milk.
For a fruitier smoothie, add a handful of berries such as blueberries, strawberries or raspberries (plus 1 teaspoon of powdered sweetener if you have a sweet tooth). This will increase the carb count.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days.
