Toffee Banana Green Shake

Toffee Banana Green Shake

Sugar bombs I’ve discovered recently: gooey fresh kadrawhy dates (7hotdates!) and raw coconut sugar. I’m in love with both.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup raw coconut sugar
15 kadrawhy dates (or 10 medjools)
1 ripe banana
2 big handfuls spinach

Blend until creamy.

    wow – thanks for introducing me to 7 Hot Dates!!! I’ve only ever had medjool – how exciting! and right in my back yard. Will definitely be trying ALL these different varieties asap!

    Did an all fruit/veg day today and thought of you. I don’t know if you know about Truly Raw Gourmet but their frozen coconut dessert is out of this world. They are made with raw org coconut water, raw org coconut cream, raw honey – and then whatever flavor – chocolate cream, apple pie, honey grapefruit, etc., etc. Her secret is the coconut cream she makes. She gets her coconuts from mexico, they are raw and organic, but they are mature. But not dried out mature – is there yet a 3rd type of coconut? so not sure if these are a starch or a fruit/seed/nut for combining. The flavor is so much richer than Thai young coconuts. They sell them at WF here in LA and the Coop. But she’s working on selling the coconut cream in pre-sized 2 oz patties in frozen packets for smoothies, etc. and those would go national.
    http://trulyrawgourmet.com/ I’ll keep you posted or if you fly thru So Cal you can try them for yourself!

  3. Ooo I’ve been scoping out different date sources but never settled on one. About to place an order now ;)

  4. I’ve been eating very similarly to you (off and on) for a few months now. I feel so much better than before, and I love eating throughout the day. Post pregnancy has felt very different than pre pregnancy. It’s like a different body. Or maybe I’m more in tune with my needs now. :) Thanks for the link to 7 Hot Dates! Just ordered some and sooooooo excited :)
