Coconut, Berry, and Spinach Smoothie Recipe (Paleo, Gaps)
We prefer the egg yolks in our smoothie because it gives the drink a nice creamy consistency. Organic, pastured egg yolks are a rich source of carotenoids, omega-3 fatty acids, and fat-soluble antioxidant nutrients. When consuming raw egg yolks, I prefer to only use pastured or good quality organic eggs. If you don’t want to use raw yolks, simply omit them.
