Creamy Breakfast Smoothie
Aletha
Vegetarian, Gluten-Free
Yogurt with live cultures and all-natural peanut butter form the protein base of
this creamy breakfast smoothie. Sweetened with dates and gently spiced with
cardamom, we've also added flax seed oil for the benefit on omega 3 fatty acids.
Serves 2
2 cups low fat 2% milk
6 oz plain non-fat yogurt
2 TB natural peanut butter
6 fresh dates, pitted and chopped
1 TB rose flower water, optional
2 tsp flax seed oil
1/4 tsp cardamom powder
Place all ingredients together in a blender and puree until completely blended.
This is better if it is not strained. If there are small pieces of dates, they
are delicious and can be a wonderful treat at the bottom of the glass!
