Sometimes, you just need chocolate. And by you, I mean me. I pretty much always have a weakness for chocolate, so if I can find a way to sneak it into my breakfast smoothie I am ALL IN.

This smoothie is a great option for breakfast or even as a post-workout meal. I originally created it for a Sports Nutrition 21-Day Program that I created a couple years ago, but I quickly adopted it as my own personal go-to.
