This past
September, I came to the startling and disturbing realization that I am dairy
intolerant. As a former connoisseur of
dairy, mainly cheese, I would indulge more often than one should, always assuming that the
debilitating stomach pain was something other than my body cursing me for
digesting so. much. cheese.
I have certainty
had some dark days, however I proved myself resilient in the fight against my two
former vices: cheese and milkshakes. While I will never find a substitute for cheese, I HAVE discovered
a way to create the tastiest (almost) healthiest, chocolate, non-dairy milk
shake I’ve ever consumed.
Gather:
-
1
Frozen Banana
-
1 ½
Cups of Almond Milk
-
Handful
of Spinach
-
Raw
Cacao Powder
-
1
Tablespoon of any nut butter of your choosing
-
Handful
of Ice Cubes (personal preference)
In a blender, toss in the sliced frozen banana.
Grab some spinach
(I was worried about adding spinach, however you can’t taste or see in the
final product)
Pour in almond milk
Add a liberal
scooping of raw cacao powder (I usually over-do it) and nut butter.
Blend…..and viola!
