Spring
longer days
warmer weather
flowers blooming
pollen runny noses congestion
This Spring my body has been more sensitive to allergens than in past years. I’ve had to find an alternative to whole fresh milk for my morning smoothies. Mother Nature in all it’s bounty provides us with Coconut Milk. I find it has a similar creamy and wholesome texture of whole milk.
I like the following combination:
- 1/2-3/4 cup of Coconut Milk
- 1 cup of Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 cup Almond Meal (ground almonds)
- 1/8-1/4 tsp of Raw Honey (if needed)
- 1/4 cup pomegranate juice
- Optional: 1 tsp. of maca powder (maca is an Andean root with strength-enhancing properties)
With my handy hand blender I mix all the ingredients directly into my portable smoothie cup and enjoy. If your smoothie turns out thick you can add water to thin it out.
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Take your time to enjoy. Don’t chug it down.
If you’re using frozen berries it’s a good idea to add about 1/4 cup of hot water so that your smoothie is not too cold.
That recipe sounds so delicious!!
Thank you Annie
