A perfect post-thanksgiving detox smoothie

Thanksgiving is one of those days that you want to let it all hang out, and you should! Enjoy the holiday while being grateful for all that you have. The next day, get your sweat on, and fuel your body with this delicious detox smoothie.

The coconut water is hydrating and will help replace electrolytes lost during a Thanksgiving booze fest. Brazil nuts contain tons of magnesium, which help alkalize the body and can even help relieve constipation and pineapple contains bromelain, which is an enzyme that will help digest any leftover turkey.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup coconut water
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 scoop Vanilla Vega One protein powder
  • 3 Brazil nuts
  • 1 cup kale
  • ½ small banana
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple
  • 4-5 ice cubes

Instructions

Place all ingredients into your blender and blend until smooth. Add water for desired consistency.
