Raw coconut oil. Blend into a smoothie. It's really tasty. Also nice to rub into your skin. Here's a smoothie I make for my DH and myself:

2 cups unsweetened almond milk
1 banana
handful or two of frozen strawberries
1 - 2 tablespoons coconut oil
tablespoon raw cacao powder (raw cacao powder, not the kind you use for baking) this is optional
little pinch of sea salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon raw honey

blend and enjoy :-)
another option is to blend in a big handful of baby spinach, you won't taste it in the smoothie but you get a good nutritional boost, adding frozen blueberries turns it purple so you don't see the green so much.
