The Smoothie Of Your Dreams
Let’s be honest—low-carb and plant-based? It sounds like a struggle (especially when keto and bacon are practically synonymous). But guess what? This low-carb chocolate smoothie is here to change the game, friends. It’s rich, creamy, totally indulgent, and (surprise, surprise)… it’s vegan, too! With budget-friendly ingredients and zero carb guilt, it’s the quickest and most satisfying recipe I’ve ever created to crush ALL the cravings. So, grab your blender, and let’s make the chocolate shake of your dreams!
Here’s What You’ll Need
Dairy-Free Milks: We’ll add full-fat coconut milk (from a can) and almond milk for a creamy boost. Freeze your almond milk in an ice cube tray to make your smoothie frosty! Unsweetened Cocoa: Cocoa powder is the secret ingredient here because it tricks your brain into thinking this smoothie is sweet (when it’s really just pure, low-carb cocoa powder!). Nut Butter: Add your favorite nut butter, like almond or peanut, for a punch of protein and healthy fats. (Bonus if you make your own almond butter!) Sugar-Free Sweetener: I didn’t need it, but you can add a touch of your favorite low-carb sweetener (like liquid stevia, erythritol, or monk fruit).
Making A Low Carb Smoothie Is Simple
Customize It!
You can completely customize this low-carb chocolate smoothie to your liking by throwing in some extras like these! Protein: Add a scoop of your favorite plant-based protein powder, or even a spoonful of Greek yogurt for an extra creamy boost. Seeds: Toss in chia seeds, flax seeds, or hemp hearts for added fiber, healthy fats, and a little extra thickness. Nut-Free: If you have nut allergies, swap the nut butter for sunflower seed butter, pumpkin seed butter, or tahini. Flavors: Add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon for some next-level deliciousness! Greens: Want to sneak in some veggies? Toss in a handful of spinach (like we do in this Nutella green smoothie!).
