Chocolate Cherry Breakfast Smoothie
This is a featured recipe taken from The Biggest Loser Cookbook by Chef Devin Alexander.
Chocolate for breakfast? Absolutely. When Biggest Loser Chef Devin Alexander is craving chocolate in the morning, she heads straight to the blender for this quick-to-prepare favorite of hers. Though it's made with cocoa (and thus satisfies the chocolate craving), it isn't sugary-sweet, so it won't set you up to crave sugar all day.
¾ cup frozen (not thawed) unsweetened sweet cherries
½ cup sugar-free, fat-free vanilla yogurt
¼ cup fat-free milk
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
4 ice cubes
1 teaspoon honey (optional)
In the jar of a blender, combine the cherries, yogurt, milk, cocoa, and ice cubes. Blend on high speed or ice-crush setting for 30 to 60 seconds, or until smooth. Stir in the honey, if desired. Pour into a glass. Serve immediately.
Makes 1 12-oz. Smoothie
