- 1 – 1.5 cups unsweetened plain almond milk
- 1 banana (frozen is better)
- 1-2 dates (optional)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- sprinkle nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and ginger (or pumpkin pie spice) to taste
- 1 scoop 22 Days Nutrition vanilla Plant Protein Powder
2. Delicious Apple Smoothie
By adding oatmeal to this smoothie you’ll feel full and have lots of energy for the most of the day, so it’s a great way to start your morning and avoid the mid-afternoon, low blood-sugar crash that has you reaching for the coffee or chocolate bar.
