With all the rage of bone broth and its health benefits, I had a strong desire to try this particular bone broth protein from Ancient Nutrition. I've made regular bone broth before and love it, but I felt it was time to see what all the hype was about!

DID YOU KNOW...
At least 6 grams of protein is needed for the first meal in order to kickstart our blood sugar. Otherwise, it is nearly impossible to catch it the rest of the day.

AND...
1 scoop of Ancient Nutrition Bone Broth Protein contains 28 grams of protein!!!

​Contains:
*NO CRAP
*GUT FRIENDLY
*PALEO FRIENDLY
*GLUTEN FREE
*DAIRY FREE
*SOY FREE
*GRAIN FREE

THE RECIPE: (for two people)

If I want to give a little smoothie to our 4-year-old Kai, I replace the bone broth protein with raw chia seeds for his protein. About a tablespoon or two is great to add in the protein factor for him since protein powder is not good for his little tummy at this age. I simply blend everything together, besides the protein powder, add the chia for Kai and viola! 

1. 2 cups Good Karma Flaxmilk
2. 1/2 or 1 full packet of  Amazon Planet Acai
3. 1/2 banana- frozen if possible (adds sweetness but don't over do it because of the high sugar content)
4. 1/2 avocado- for good fat and to make it creamy :)
5. Teaspoon organic extra virgin olive oil- MUST be in  a dark glass bottle to protect from sunlight and going bad)
6. Tablespoon Nutiva Organic Coconut Oil- must be virgin cold-pressed (go for cold-pressed coconut oil because it is processed at lower temperatures, thus sustaining more of its nutrient content. All this to say, coconut oil, the right kind, is one of the healthiest fats on the planet- so eat or drink up!
7. 1 1/2 cups ice
8. 2 handfuls organic greens
9. To give it a little more sweetness, add about a teaspoon-ish of raw honey : )

And blend away!
