Chocolate Protein Smoothie

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup milk (I used unsweetened almond milk)
• 1 small sweet potato baked, cut & peeled, and frozen* (6 ounces raw)
• 3/4 cup frozen cauliflower rice (75 grams)
• 1/2 heaping cup frozen sweet cherries (80 grams)
• 1 serving chocolate protein powder
• 1 tablespoon almond butter
• 1 tablespoon dark cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• pinch of sea salt

Instructions

1. Prep your sweet potatoes if needed (this needs to be done in advance). Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and bake for 30-40 minutes until soft and can be pierced with a knife. Let cool for a few minutes and roughly cut into 1-2 inches pieces, peeling off the skin as you go. Place cut sweet potatoes on a parchment paper-lined dish in the freezer and let freeze overnight, or at least 4 hours.
2. Blend your smoothie. Add all the ingredients to a high-powered blender (I used my Vitamix) and blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Enjoy! Drink or top with some toppings and enjoy!
