Sometimes you need to down a simple nourishing smoothie. I've been on a strawberry kick lately and this thick, spoonable smoothie was a pink heaven of sorts. Strawberries are a magnificent source of vitamin C- an antioxidant that is important for the immune system and keeping skin healthy. Just another reason to love the bright, juicy and vitamin filled fruit! A heaping tablespoon of almond butter provides protein, a giant pinch of maca powder keeps up the energy for hours and chia seeds provide a generous dose of Omega-3s!
