Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen or fresh blueberries
- 1 cup packed spinach
- 1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk (or preferred dairy-free milk)
- 1-2 medjool dates , pits removed
- 2 tablespoons cacao or unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats (gluten free if desired)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- Garnish: blueberries chia seeds, oats
Instructions
- Drain the dates. Add dates, blueberries, spinach, milk, cacao, flax and vanilla to a blender and blend until smooth then transfer to a medium-large glass bowl (ideally with a lid).
- Add the oats and chia seeds to the bowl and mix well. Leave in the fridge overnight. In the morning top with additional blueberries and chia seeds and enjoy! As always, feel free to add some Almond Cream!
Notes
- *If you want a sweeter taste, use 2 dates. If you have a low sugar diet or have weened yourself off sugar, 1 date will work fine! If your dates are tough and firm, you might need to soak them for 10 to 15 minutes in water to make them softer and easier to blend.
- This bowl can also double as a fun dessert! Add an additional date and ¼ cup of whole cashews to the blender to make it sweeter and creamier.
