Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups light coconut milk
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 banana
- 3 pitted Medjool dates
- ½ slice of sprouted grain bread we like Ezekiel brand
- ¼ cup vegan chocolate chips
- 1 cup ice
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and purée until smooth and creamy. Use the tamper to press down the ingredients, as necessary, to ensure everything gets fully incorporated.
Notes
~ To ensure all ingredients get fully incorporated, add the liquid first, then fresh berries and banana, next bread, dates and chocolate chips, and lastly ice.
~ If you don't have sprouted grain bread, use 2 to 3 tablespoons of rolled oats instead.
~ If you are using frozen fruit, omit the ice.
~ To reduce the calorie count, use a tablespoon or two of unsweetened cocoa powder instead of chocolate chips and unsweetened almond milk instead of coconut milk.
~ If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk, or add some water.
~ If the smoothie is too thin, add more banana or the other ½ slice of bread.
