I've been away from the blogosphere for a little while, so here's my triumphant return! First grad school got in the way then I had a few medical hiccups, but now I'm both spring-breaking and healthy.
This recipe is one of my favorites when I'm craving something sweet. All of the ingredients store well so I always keep them on hand. It's thick for a smoothie, more like a sherbet consistency that I eat with a spoon. If you wanted something you can drink you could add more alterna-milk or water. Because it's thick I use my food processor to blend it, but if you have a sturdy blender that would work too.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup frozen berries (I like raspberries or blackberries)
1 Tbsp peanut butter or other nut butter
1/2 Tbsp maple syrup or honey or brown rice syrup
1/2 Tbsp high lignan flaxseed oil (I like Barlean's)
Approx. 1/4 cup alterna-milk (hemp, soy, almond, coconut)
Very complicated preparation instructions:
Place all ingredients in blender/food processor and blend until smooth. Place in a cup and go crazy with a spoon!
