Cherry & Chocolate Hemp Shake

Some days (like today) I make Zoe and Ashley lunch, and they just aren't in the mood to eat. So I blend them a smoothie or shake. Right now they are really into this little glass bottle that we are reusing. I think it came with 100% grape juice in it, but I can't remember. The girls thought the small size was super cute, and they love drinking out of it with their eco-friendly, durable glass straws.

Today I blended some frozen organic cherries (go Costco!) and added some Chocolate Hemp Shake, something like this:

For one:
Add to blender:
1 cup frozen cherries
about 1.5 cups almond milk (or to your desired thickness)
Puree

Why use hemp? Click here to read the health benefits, or watch this video. Also, don't forget to store this protein powder—like all of your seeds and nuts—in the refrigerator.

Have a great evening, Kelly

As a retired hairdesigner (31 yrs in the business) I must say that your daughter's new hair cut looks fabulous. That was a common cut requested by many of my clients. Its classic, modern & chic. She looks great.

Hi, Love the Lilly picture, did you take it yourself? If so, I was wondering if I could use it as a reference for a painting.

I LOVE these straws!!! I just bought some and it makes me WANT to make a smoothie every day... maybe a couple of times a day just so I can use the cool straw!! :-) My husband still needs a little convincing, but I love them!!
