Date avocado smoothie recipe:
Makes 2 servings.
INGREDIENTS:
-2 cups almond milk
-1 fuerte or hass avocado
-12 dates, pitted
-1-2 T honey
-1 tsp vanilla
-6-8 ice cubes, optional
PROCESS:
-First make the almond milk. Cover 1 cup raw almonds with water, refrigerate and soak at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
-Drain and rinse almonds, then add almonds along with 2 cups of filtered water into a blender. Start at low speed, then gradually increase to high. Turn blender off, add 2 more cups of water, blend for a couple more seconds until combined. Yields 4 cups of almond milk.
-Place 2 cups of almond milk, avocado, and pitted dates into blender. It’s good to start with the almond milk because it makes blending a little easier.
-blend ingredients, taste, on their own
-Then add honey and vanilla to your liking.
-If you prefer your smoothies cold, add ice cubes as well, then blend until smooth and creamy.
