Serves: 2
Ingredients
-
2
frozen bananas
-
1
cup fresh blueberries
-
3
medjool dates, pitted, soaked
-
1
tablespoon raw cacao powder
-
1
teaspoon maca powder
-
1/2
teaspoon powdered ginger
-
2
teaspoons soaked chia seeds
-
1-2
tablespoons water or coconut milk
Directions
- First, soak your pitted dates in enough water to cover. Soak from 30 minutes to overnight, whichever is easiest for you.
- When you remove your soaked pitted dates from the water, save a few tablespoons of it and soak your chia seeds while you assemble and measure everything.
- Put your ingredients into a blender.
- Whiz on high until smooth.
- The last ingredient of coconut milk or water is to get the smoothie to a drinkable consistency, and how much may vary on how much water is in your dates and chia, etc. Just slowly add enough liquid to make it the consistency you like.
- This will make 2 smoothies, or one big pint size one just for you.
