It's hot, hot, hot here in the 'burgh and this morning I was craving something cool, rich, and creamy for brekkie. With my crazy schedule as of late I didn't have many options in the fridge, so I fell back on an old favorite: my Strawberry Banana Dreamsicle Smoothie. It's simple, delicious and turns into a thick pudding when refrigerated. It's also packed with healthy fats and pure protein from grass-fed gelatin and collagen powders. Healthy and tasty....what's not to like?
Here's the recipe....
Strawberry Banana Dreamsicle Smoothie
1 can full-fat, organic, BPA-free coconut milk
1-2 frozen bananas (in chunks)
1/2 bag frozen strawberries
2-3 tsps vanilla extract
1-3 tbs gelatin powder (the more you add, the more pudding-like the texture)
2 tbs collagen powder
Pinch of sea salt
1. Combine all ingredients except collagen and gelatin in blender and mix gently.
2. Incorporate collagen and gelatin at low speed (to avoid mechanically damaging fragile proteins).
3. Enjoy or refrigerate for pudding later.
