 This green smoothie has the potential to cause serious relaxation and great mood!
Interestingly all ingredients begin with a "C". 1.5 cups pitted cherries 2 Tbs raw cacao 2 Tbs chia 2 cups cashew milk 1-2 handfuls of leafy greens Cashews, chia and cacao are great sources of magnesium, a mineral easily depleted by stress and insomnia. We need it to help our muscles relax and it’s an important mineral for our brain. Cherries contain the tryptamine ‘melatonin’ which aids relaxation and sleep. Cacao subsequently activates tryptamines. What a partnership! Cashew Milk Soak 1/3 cup raw cashews for 4 hours till plump with water Discard soak water and blend soaked cashews with 1.5 cups of water and 1 Tbs agave or maple syrup Makes 2 cups of cashew milk for recipe above For more green smoothie recipes please visit www.greensmoothiecommunity.com
