I’ve been making a lot of smoothies lately. It’s such an easy and quick way to provide nourishment. I especially like them because they make it so easy to take coconut oil. If you’re not doing dairy, just use coconut milk. I’ve been making these for Seth and he LOVES them!
They also make a great breakfast if you’re tired of eggs — or on the run. Or you can make them for a fast and easy lunch. They are so filling — they keep you going for hours.
I hit upon a couple of really great recipes I thought I’d share. The measurements are approximate — adjust to taste.
Chocolate Banana Smoothie
1 banana
1 cup kefir, raw milk, yogurt, or coconut milk
1 TBS raw honey
2 raw egg yolks
2 TBS coconut oil
1 TBS organic cocoa powder
Peach and Cantaloupe Smoothie
1 banana
1 cup kefir, raw milk, yogurt, or coconut milk
1 TBS raw honey
2 raw egg yolks
2 TBS coconut oil
1 large peach, or 2-3 small peaches (peeled and pitted)
1 cantaloupe wedge, minus the rind (about 1/4 of a cantaloupe)
Vanilla Banana Smoothie
1 banana
1 cup kefir, raw milk, yogurt, or coconut milk
1 TBS raw honey
2 raw egg yolks
2 TBS coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
I sometimes also add a few TBS of raw cream (for me, not for Seth yet), just to make them even more nutritious.
