Cookies and Coconut Smoothie

Print

Share

42

When a smoothie is sweet, that’s usually a bad sign. Not so with this Cookies and Coconut Smoothie.

Instead of added sugar or tons of fruit, this blend is sweetened with just a few dates and balanced with cashews, cocoa powder, and vanilla.

Bonus: Cacao adds heart-health boosting flavanols.

INGREDIENTS

1 cup almond milk, unsweetened
1/4 cup cashews
2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut
5 medjool dates
1 tablespoon cacao powder
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

Add all ingredients to blender and blend until smooth.
Pour into glass and enjoy!

WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

Do we really need to explain? This creamy smoothie tastes like a chocolate coconut cookie but is filled with antioxidants instead of white flour and sugar. Enough said.
