Dates - the sweet kind

This recipe is inspired by the Jimbo's...Naturally! Palm Desert Shake. Would it be too close to copyright infringement if I called it the Palm Dessert Shake?


Palm Dessert Shake


5 fresh dates (whichever variety is local/in-season)
1/2c Unsweetened organic almond milk
1/2c Unsweetened organic rice milk
1 Tbsp milled flax seed
1 Tbsp organic raw almond butter
1/2 frozen banana
1/2c Organic rice milk-based "ice cream"
1/4c crushed ice




1. De-pit and slice dates
2. Combine ingreds
3. Blend.*
* Tip - pour liquids in first for blending ease.

Yields a big ole cup. Share or save if you're an 8oz = 1 serving kinda person.
