When I created my free 30-Day PCOS Diet Challenge, I was hesitant to include any smoothie recipes as it’s hard to find good-tasting ones that work well within a PCOS diet. Over the last few months though I’ve made it my mission to create some new smoothie recipes that are perfect to enjoy as a PCOS snack or dessert, and won’t undo all your hard work!
This tasty smoothie is a filling snack, and with ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, and vanilla, you know it’s going to be just as nice warmed up on a cold winter morning as it is served chilled, in the middle of summer. For more smoothie ideas check out this list of PCOS-recipes!
Here’s everything you’ll need to make this PCOS-Friendly Nutty Chai Smoothie:
- Almond milk
- Cashew nuts
- Coconut butter
- Vanilla extract
- Ground Ceylon cinnamon
- Ground cardamom
- Ginger powder
- Banana
- Ice
- Salt
I hope you enjoy!
