Chocolate milkshakes for breakfast
- 1 overripe banana (if not overripe, add 2 pitted medjool dates)
- 1 handful blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 MASSIVE handful baby kale and/or baby spinach
- 1 tablespoon almond butter (make sure it has no added sugar)
- 1 tablespoon raw unhulled tahini
- 1-2 tablespoons raw cacao powder (more makes it richer)
- 1-2 glass(es) coconut water or almond milk (make sure you check for any added sugar)
Blend until well combined. Adjust liquid according to desired thickness.
(An example of a blender that works great is a NutriBullet or NutriNinja).
(TIP: if you have a bunch of bananas that are overripe and the skin is going black, peel them, place in a bag and freeze until you need them. It preserves the yummy banana taste and saves you from throwing them away).
