Focus on Cacao (not to be confused with Cocoa)

Day 5 of 30
Hey ya'll! There was no rhyme or reason to today's concoction. I just experimented with what I had in the kitchen and it turned out pretty yummy. It actually was a little spicy! I think that was due to the hefty shake of cinnamon. 

2 dinosaur kale leaves
2 tbsp Spectrum Essentials Chia and Flax Seed Decadent blend with Coconut and Cocoa
1 tbsp chopped walnuts
1/2 frozen banana
3 dates
1 tbsp Cacao powder
1 tsp Maca powder
Generous sprinkle of cinnamon

Cacao (ka-cow) is the raw unprocessed form of chocolate and it's different from cocoa which is a more process form of chocolate. I love this great visual that explains the difference between the two forms. 




Cheers!
