Ingredients
- For the smoothie:
- 2 Medjool dates pitted, large
- 1 cup light coconut milk plus more to thin if necessary
- 1 cup cauliflower frozen
- ¾ cup zucchini sliced, about half medium zucchini
- 1 tablespoon almond butter or peanut butter (any nut or seed butter will work
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cacao powder or sub unsweetened cocoa powder (do 1 tablespoon if you want less intense flavor
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
- TO GARNISH:
- Toasted coconut flakes or regular coconut flakes
- mini chocolate chips or a drizzle of almond butter or chocolate almond butter
Instructions
- First soak your pitted dates in 1 cup of very warm water for at least 5 minutes. This will help them soften up and perfect for blending. While the dates are soaking you can get all your other ingredients out, measured and ready.
- Next add all ingredients to a high powered blender: pitted dates, coconut milk, cauliflower, zucchini, nut butter, cacao, vanilla extract and salt. Feel free to add any optional add-ins to your smoothie if you’d like. Blend until smooth, adding more coconut milk to thin, if necessary. Pour into a glass and enjoy! Top with almond butter, granola and coconut flakes, if desired. Serves 1. Feel free to double the recipe to serve 2.
