Hi Tess!
This is so great!
I actually bought Julie’s book a little over a week ago, just before my VitaMix came in!
I LOVE them BOTH!
I stocked up on a bunch of the superfoods she mentions and the info is amazing.
(Just added CamiCamu & Chia to my smoothie this morning! 🙂
Peace!

Oh GREAT! Isn’t her book AMAZING? LOVE it. SO glad you are adding more superfoods to your diet and making your way through her delicious recipes. Thanks for sharing.
I came across this recipe several weeks ago and made it – it is FANTASTIC!! It is definitely a meal replacement smoothie. I wasn’t hungry for hours! So filling, nourishing, decadent and tasty! I adore Julie’s smoothies and have been drooling over her book for a long time. I will have a copy – maybe thru this giveaway – wink, wink!
I love creating with superfoods. So much fun and so amazing for the body. Thanks for this offer and this recipe. XOXO
I hope you win the book and the superfoods in the giveaway too! YOU would LOVE this book Kibby. RIGHT up your alley. Enjoy 🙂
I made this smoothie last night for the very first time, I had my kids and my husband staring at my concoction. They are always curious when I prepare things with superfoods because they can’t understand how all those strange looking things can make things taste good and voila, a few minutes later, my power chocolate smoothie was a winner. I had to make each one a smoothie because nobody wanted to share. This recipe is defenitely a keeper!!! Great Job
LOL! LOVE stories like this. Thankyou for sharing 🙂
What a great looking smoothie! You’d never know it was so darn nutritious by looking at it. Lovely recipe!
IÂ know! SOOOO good 🙂
We made this earlier, taste fansastic and contains some really healthy raw superfoods! Look forward to seeing more, thanks for sharing :O)
Yes! This is SOOO delicious and contains serious goodies. Glad you enjoyed it. Julie’s recipes are amazing.
Holy Yum!! Need to try this. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Holy Yum is right! This one is not to be missed. Seriously good.
Great. Thanks for sharing.
Wonder if I could sub banana for pear or pear yogurt ? (Can you guess I don’t have a ripe pear on hand)?
I would substitute banana or a bit of apple sauce.
Am I right in working out this recipe is 660kcal!? It looks divine but seems very high calories, would it be suitable as a meal replacement?
You are correct. This is a dessert-style smoothie and is high in calories, carbs, and sugars. I find it too sweet for a meal replacement. I share it with a friend as a sweet treat.
Tried this smoothie with my kids this afternoon and loved it! Went to pin it though and was unable to due to an invalid URL image.
