Egg Nog Smoothie for Holiday Cheer!
I must admit that I took the basis of this recipe from Rose Cole, a wellness coach, but I modified it to my tasting and I used coconut milk since my daughter is allergic to almonds. However, I have made it with fresh almond milk and it is just as delicious!
Egg Nog Smoothie
First peel and slice 2- 4 bananas and put in the freezer for a few hours.
Make date paste with 6-10 pitted organic medjool dates and about 2 TBSP of water in a high speed blender – puree it.
Add 2 cups of fresh coconut milk from the refrigerated section of Whole Foods or your local health food store.
2 tsp of flax oil (Personally, I like Barlean’s Fresh Flax Oil Highest Lignan)
2 tsp of Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp of ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp of ground cinnamon
Blend all of the ingredients except bananas
Add frozen bananas at the end to thicken the drink.
Voila! Enjoy with nutmeg sprinkled on top in individual servings!
I made this for my daughter who is a true egg nog and coconut lover….and she LOVED it!! I loved the fact that it was me who treated her and that such an easy treat made her so happy:) Need more of your recopies! PS…I loved it as well:)
