Superfood Vanilla “Milkshake”
This yummy non-milk Vanilla Milkshake tastes pretty amazing but is also a delicious way to get gorgeous skin.
Chia seeds are anti-inflammatory, and high in Omega 3 fatty acids, a wonder-seed designed to give your skin a sweet glow. Flax seeds are anti-inflammatory as well, and maca root powder gives you an energy boost to help you go the distance.
By replacing dairy with almond milk, you further cool the inflammation that a normal, unhealthy shake would bring.
Did I mention that this is delicious?
Ingredients
1 cup almond milk
1/2 frozen banana
1 tablespoon maca powder
1 tablespoon chia seeds
2 tablespoon raw cashew nuts
2 pitted Medjool dates
1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
1 teaspoon organic vanilla
shake of nutmeg
3 drops vanilla creme liquid stevia
Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender.
*if you do not have a high speed blender, use hemp seed or hemp protein powder, as cashews may not puree
