Cherry Milkshake

OK so I lied. Not much of an experiment as it was some basic ingredients. Still, I love love love cherries and this was pretty thick and tasted close to a milkshake.  I didn't use ice in this because the cherries and berries were frozen.

2 cups of almond milk

1 scoop of protein powder 

1 banana

1/4 cup of raw hazelnuts

1/2 cup of black raspberries 

2+ cups of cherries

You know the drill. Throw everything but the cherries in and blend. Add the cherries a little at a time. 

Chocolate Sweet Potato Protein

Last sweet potato experiment for the week.  I think I could probably add them to any of my recipes at this point. 

You can use any raw nuts and any nut butter that you like. I just use what's laying around. 

And no.......there's no picture. I forgot to take one again and it was gone before I remembered. 

2 cups of almond milk

1 scoop of protein powder

3 tablespoons of hemp powder

3 tablespoons of whole oats 

3 tablespoons of cacao powder or nibs

1-3 tablespoons of instant espresso 

1/4 c organic peanut butter

1/4 c raw hazelnuts

4 medjool dates

1 banana

1 sweet potato

12 ice cubes

Cube and cook the sweet potato in the microwave or oven until it's soft then let it cool completely. 

Throw everything but the ice cubes in a high powered blender.  As its mixing, add the ice one cube at a time.  You may also have to add a little more milk to thin it out.

This makes enough to share or save!
