1Delicious Salted Caramel Smoothie
This 7-ingredient, refined sugar-free, delicious salted caramel smoothie can be made in minutes yet will satisfy for hours. With a secret ingredient that brings a creaminess you’ve been waiting for, you’ll never guess what vegetable is used to create this consistency, whilst remaining discreet.
This delicious salted caramel smoothie is high in protein, therefore great for post-workout. Being high protein means that it helps with the repair of muscles and maintaining muscle mass. It’s also blood sugar regulating and provides sustained energy throughout the day. Mesquite is also blood sugar regulating and a low GI food that’s high in minerals – it’s also provides a beautiful and subtle caramel flavour. Lastly, the banana, dates and zucchini support healthy bowels by providing an excellent source of fibre. If you’re game, feel free to add a whole zucchini in!
We love this smoothie as a snack, for breakfast or even for dessert.
