Cherry Cinnamon Smoothie
Chocolate Cherry smoothies have always been a go-to favorite of mine, so much so that I hesitated to pair cherries with vanilla. But I have to admit, I'm sorry I waited this long to try it!

Liquid: 1/2 to 1 cup almond milk or liquid of choice. I use water.
Protein Powder: 1 scoop of high-quality vanilla protein powder
1 serving of Vital Proteins Collagen Powder
1 TBLS Chia Seeds
1 tsp cinnamon
Greens: Add 1 small handful of frozen greens of your choice like organic power greens, spinach, or baby kale
Add 1/2 cup frozen cauliflower rice and a slice or 2 slices of cucumber.
1 TBLS peanut butter (optional)

Add enough liquid to cover the blades of your blender. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend in a high-speed blender until smooth adding more liquid as needed. Pour and enjoy. I like to eat mine in a bowl with a tablespoon of granola sprinkled on top!
