Today my Egg Nog Green Smoothie was featured in Well and Good!
It’s a take off of my regular egg nog holiday drink.
Typical egg nog is loaded with
sugar, cream and even raw eggs.
And healthier versions have banana in it – not my style.
Instead of depriving myself of my favorite holiday treat,
I sweetened it with dates and coconut water, and
blended with avocado, coconut milk and almond milk
for the perfect amount of creaminess.
In this egg nog green smoothie, I also added in some spirulina and kale
for a dose of greens, making it the ultimate guilt-free treat.
Sweet, super creamy and spiced just right.
Refined-sugar-free, egg-free and dairy-free too!
