Have you ever had one of those days where there
seemed to be no food in your kitchen…leaving with
you with nothing to eat?
You start to panic…
The hunger bug takes over and you start to sweat.
Ok, maybe that’s going a little too far but
when you’re hungry it’s usually nice to have a go-to
recipe that you can whip up in a snap.
Here’s a delicious smoothie recipe from
holistic nutritionist,Yuri Elkaim, that fits that role beautifully.
This is perfect at any time of day, even after
your workout.
INGREDIENTS:
2 bananas (who doesn’t like ‘nana’s?)
2 tbsp raw cacao (I have just discovered how great this stuff is!)
2-3 dates (I’m in love with fresh dates)
1 tbsp organic peanut butter (peanut butter is my ‘ice cream’)
300 ml almond milk (delicious and oh so healthy)
3-4 ice cubes, if thick milkshake-like consistency is desired or,
DIRECTIONS:
Add everything into a blender, blend until
creamy, and serve. This makes a BIG smoothie!
*Personally I usually add a serve of chocolate
whey protein (and reduce the raw cacao by a tbsp) – but that’s up to you.
If you’re fully raw/vegan, add a serve of
your favourite raw/vegan protein powder.
*Another tip is to use frozen bananas instead of fresh –
then you don’t need the ice cubes, and you’ll get even
MORE flavour.
Give this simple smoothie a try and you’ll be
surprised at how delicious it tastes, all the while
providing you with incredible “rawesome”
nutrition!
keep sharing such ideas in the future as well. this was actually what i was looking for, and i am glad to come here!
