I am all about the green shakes. I am all about pouring as much nutrition into a burst of morning energy. And while bananas usually steal the show of most of my shakes, this one has a totally different spin to it.
So here you go again…
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons almond butter (Note: almond butter pictured is unsafe for peanut allergies)
- 1 cup green grapes or 1 cup chopped mango (although grapes work best)
- 2 pitted dates
- 1 cup chopped zucchini
- 1 cup spinach or kale
- 1 1/4 cup almond milk or protein nut milk for added protein (almond, cashew, pea)
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp flax seeds
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
- Handful of ice
*Note: ingredients can be modified for specific allergies.
Mix together in the Vitamix and enjoy! This is one my husband even loves (the grape version)… a great way to sneak in some veggies … and empower you to get after that mess once and for all…well, maybe tomorrow.
And of course I need to share with my little sidekick…
