Quick Easy Smoothie

This mama-to-be is suffering with an ear infection.  I have been taking my NingXia Red, using Lavender Essential Oil and Purification Essential Oil blend on the outside of my ear and 2 drops of Mullein Garlic Oil in  my ear.  I am surviving and will make it to my Raw Foods 101 class tonight to teach the awesomeness of incorporating raw foods into your diet.  Actually, right now my ear doesn't feel too bad.  But it does slightly hurt to chew.  So I decided to whip up a quick smooth to fill me up and give me a nutrition boost to help get over this ear business.

Raw Vegan Chocolate Raspberry Bananascream

Who doesn't love a sweet frozen treat? In our house we were big ice cream eaters after dinner. Since going vegan finding frozen loveliness hasn't been easy. Sure there are your vegan alternatives but they are so darn expensive! Once I learned about frozen banana ice cream we were forever changed. This recipe is so easy, yummy, and customizable I recommend everyone try it.  You may never go back to ice cream again.

Ingredients:

4 frozen bananas cut into small pieces

1/2 cup frozen raspberries

2 tbsp shredded coconut

1/4 cup coconut water

4 pitted dates

2 tbsp raw cocao or carob powder

Pulse in your food processor until broken down. Then run on hi until it comes together Ina soft serve consistency. If you don't have a food processor feel free to use a blender. Spoon into bowls and enjoy!
