Diets It’s back to school and back to a schedule for many of us, which means grabbing a coffee and going. You know how I feel about making sure you get a well-balanced breakfast. On those super hectic days, this coffee date smoothie is your solution. My daughter-in-law Nechama is a nurse, and she created this recipe for those 5 a.m. rounds. For all you coffee lovers out there, this macro-packed smoothie will give you everything you need, including your morning caffeine kick. This thick, creamy coffee smoothie has it all— that first sip feeling along with that “full ‘n free” feeling.
1 cup prepared cold brew
1 cup ice cubes (or more for a thicker smoothie)
1/2 frozen banana
2 to 4 dates, pitted and checked (adjust to taste)
2 to 3 tablespoons cacao nibs
1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
1/4 cup milk of choice (Gefen Almond Milk, or for nut-free use coconut or oat milk)
1 tablespoon nut butter of choice (Gefen Almond Butter recommended, or sunflower butter for nut-free)
1 tablespoon Absolute Collagen or protein powder of choice (optional for added protein)
Place all ingredients in a blender, except for one tablespoon of cacao nibs. Process for about 30 seconds until smooth. Do not overblend or the smoothie will become too thin.
For added crunch, add the last tablespoon of cacao nibs and blend for five seconds to slightly crush them. This adds a nice crunchy surprise with every sip.
