Nutella Smoothie
I’ve got chocolate on my mind big time!!!! Even though I eat a well balanced diet the majority of the time, I do like to indulge sometimes too. Sometimes that temptation to indulge can creep up on me and I realise that I am indulging wayyyy to often.
That’s when I need a little something to kill the cravings and one of my smoothies ALWAYS hits the spot 🙂
This nutella smoothie is so chocolatey and thick. It is hands down amazing.
Free from any refined sugar, gluten and dairy, this smoothie is jam packed with goodness to keep you feeling feel for hours.
