Ingredients

 2 packs of açaí (7 - 8 ounces)
 1 medium banana (fresh or frozen)
 ½ cup plant-based yogurt (unsweetened)

 1 tbsp hemp seeds
 1 tbsp shredded coconut (unsweetened)
 1 tbsp cacao nibs (fair trade)

Directions

1

Add the açaí, banana, and yogurt to a blender and blend until smooth. If needed to help get the blender going, add 1–2 tablespoons of plant-based milk, but not too much or else your smoothie base will be too runny.
