Today’s episode (our third) is a great one: I’m making a truly delicious dairy and gluten-free smoothie that feels and tastes like dessert but is actually surprisingly healthy. As I mention in the video I don’t love smoothies myself (I just prefer to eat my food than drink it I guess), but even this one I put together has gotten me into the mood.
The secret ingredient? Cocoa powder! Just a few teaspoons of CP takes the smoothie across the finish line in first place. Let’s get to the recipe!

Hey, title suggests the smoothie has banana but none in the recipe? Looks delicious though!
1 banana – thanks for catching!

Thanks so much for sharing this great recipe. I went vegan a couple years back so I always love finding dairy and gluten free smoothie recipes!!

I’m not a big fan of smoothies either (especially yogurt based, yuck!), but this looks delicious. Thanks, Lo!
