Healthy Egg Nog
I LOVE egg nog, but I’m afraid the high fat diary version doesn’t love me back.
It makes me sick to my tummy. It also makes me feel bloated.
I had to design my own healthy version, using my beloved almond milk and my favorite sweet spices.
It’s awesome, and kids love it too.. so do husbands.
Ingredients
2 cups almond milk (homemade is best!)
1 frozen banana ( you can add a second one if you’re OK with the extra banana sugar)
1 teaspoon vanilla
Big dashes of cinnamon and nutmeg, including some to garnish
3 Medjool dates, pitted
Preparation
Blend in a high speed blender and serve with a cinnamon stick. Sprinkle with a cinnamon shake!
Serves 2

Holli.. this sounds perfect.. I usually use coconut milk for everything but suspect almond milk is going to be better (am trusting you on this).
Hope you are well..and wishing you love and every blessing for the holiday season.

Lisa,
You can use whatever you like:) If you have a wonderful coconut milk that’s organic, and free of additives, I’d use it. Sounds delicious!

HI Holli!
I just made a smoothie a few weeks ago similar to this. It was delicious! I will try your recipe this week! I’m making your ginger tea remedy this morning. My husband picked up something yesterday so I’m boosting our immune systems with your yummy recipe!
