Dr. Logan's Favorite Muscle Recovery Smoothie

There are many excellent options of recovery smoothies for athletes, but here is my latest fave:

Dr. Logan's Recovery smoothie (2 servings)

● 1 cup cold water

● ½ cup frozen peaches (can sub a berry instead)

● 1 banana

● 1 cup spinach (could substitute kale)

● 1 cooked/peeled beet (I buy them at Trader Joe's - pre packaged)

● ½ tsp raw cacao

● 1 scoop whey protein (20-30g protein) - I prefer Jocko banana

● 2 tbsp ground flaxseed

Place all ingredients in a blender & mix. This blender is perfect for work (it is what I have at my office).

Enjoy!
