Clean Eating Gingerbread Smoothie

Aren’t these gingerbread men the cutest little things?! I’m all about edible cuteness, especially when it tastes so damn good! Ginger, cinnamon, molasses… I absolutely love these holiday flavors. They make your tummy jolly and your house smell so festive!

Now, what if I told you that you could drink your favorite holiday cookie (sort of!) AND boost its nutrition factor? Clean Eating Gingerbread Smoothie, girl! That’s the secret! The combination of banana, almond milk, almond butter, blackstrap molasses, maple syrup and spices completely recreates the taste of these cute little men. And the addition of fresh ginger makes it a great source of antioxidants and will help you build a healthy immune system.

Just like that, gingerbread has become a perfectly acceptable breakfast option!
