Blues Buster Smoothie

I got this recipe at a health food store about two years ago. I have made it a few times and it tastes really great along with all the health benefits. This smoothie has a lot of Vitamin D which increases levels of serotonin. If you have bad skin it will help that as well. 
It also has B vitamins which effect your brain function. B vitamin deficiencies are linked to depression. 

Ingredients

12 oz strawberry flavored yogurt
1 Small ripe banana
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa
4-6 frozen strawberries
1 tsp unflavored or orange flavored cod liver oil
1 Tbsp smooth almond butter (room temp)

Optional: 
1 Tbsp honey
1 cup fresh berries


Directions

Mix all ingredients thoroughly in a blender at high speed.
