Women need healthy fats but we don’t always get enough of them.  I love slipping fatty nuts into smoothies and snacks and always carry some in my purse for those “whenever” moments.

In this recipe, I love using pili nuts (okay to sub macadamia nuts) since they provide an excellent source of monounsaturated fats which satiate hunger while providing the building blocks that support cell membranes.  The flavor of this is smoothie warming, full of comfort and offers up a lot heartiness.  I love enjoying it later in the day too by the way.  It’s even a wonderful quick dinner as well, served a long a side salad or some chopped vegetables if you are on the go!
