We are in the midst of selling our house so posting is at a minimum this week BUT....here's a recipe to get you by.
I love smoothies. When Tim or I are in a rush, craving something sweet, or wanting to get our greens some way besides sauteed in a pan we go for smoothies. You can cram as many great ingredients in your juicer, blender or vitamix as you want. They are amazingly fun for kiddos and if you want to get really sneaky on them, you can get in their greens by making them a green smoothie. They'll never know they are eating yummy kale or spinach or collards!
Here is one of my favorite recipes for when I want something sweet like a chocolate milk shake. It's super easy and will rock your world I promise.
Chocolate Bliss Shake
3 cups frozen bananas
2 cups almond milk (it’s amazing with FRESH almond milk, but any milk will work)
2T raw carob powder or cocoa powder (adjust to taste…cocoa tends to have a stronger flavor than carob)
1 t vanilla (non-alcohol)
1/4 cup agave nectar or 2 packets stevia
Pinch of sea salt
(For an extra kick, you can add a bit of cinnamon)
Put all ingredients into your blender.
Blend.
Drink
Enjoy
