This healthy and nutritious smoothie, similar to mint ice cream with chocolate chips, is perfect for breakfast and a real treat for those on the keto diet. It's ready in minutes. The base is coconut milk and a splash of plain yogurt. Blend it with ice, mint leaves, and spinach, then stir in cacao nibs for a chocolate-like texture. Sweeten with erythritol if desired.
