This Peppermint Mocha Smoothie is an easy, healthy snack to fuel up after your workout. My husband and I have been following a low-carb diet since mid-March in an effort to eat healthier and be more aware of what we are eating. I am down 20+ pounds with about 10-15 more to go. Since being on a low-carb diet, one of the things I’ve really missed has been my morning smoothies.
I discovered that I can get creative with the ingredients and still enjoy my post-workout smoothies like this Blueberry Cobbler one. I use the Silk brand unsweetened cashew milk. This peppermint mocha is my most recent creation. Stay tuned for more in the coming days and weeks, because one thing about me is I love variety and hate to eat the same thing every day! With the ingredients I used, it comes up to 6 net carbs and keeps me full until lunchtime.
