Broccoli-Bok Choy Smoothie

This Asian-inspired smoothie gets a nutritional boost from the addition of a small amount of coconut aminos. Coconut aminos are a soy sauce substitute that is soy-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free and can be found in most specialty stores, natural food stores, and online. Made from raw coconut sap, they have a notable amount of amino acids, which contribute to the repair of muscle tissue. So, drink up after an active day and let your body heal itself while you relax.
