I've completed week 3 of the 30 day green smoothie challenge! I was supposed to add chai seeds, cacao powder, and chard to my smoothies this week. As you can tell from below, I didn't. I went to purchase these ingredients and was shocked by how expensive they were. I found the chai seeds at Trader Joe's for $4.99, I should have gotten them then but I though I could find them cheaper somewhere else. WRONG!!! I didn't see the cacao powder at Trader Joe's but MOMs and Wegmans had it for $15.99. I've never had it before so I did not want to spend that type of money and then find out I didn't like it. As far as the chard, I left it off my restock list and completely forgot about it.
This week (week 4) I plan on experimenting more with my smoothies.
