Chocolate + cherries = heaven. With approximately 14% of your daily RDA of iron, this decadent-tasting smoothie boasts a nice little nutritional boost. Equally great as a dessert as it is a morning pick-me-up.

Ingredients

1 medium ripe frozen banana*
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
3/4 cup frozen pitted cherries
2 tablespoons cocoa powder (I use this one)
Pinch sea salt
Coconut whipped cream
Drizzle of chocolate syrup
Diced cherries

Steps:

Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and puree until smooth. Pour into glass (or divide between two glasses) and top with optional toppings if desired. I like adding a chocolate syrup rim - just drizzle a bit of chocolate syrup onto a small plate and dip in the rim of the glass. Plop in a straw and serve!
