I’ve recently purchased a VitaMix. With this amazing piece of kitchen equipment in hand, I’ve been experimenting & creating smoothie recipes (like my hazelnut lucuma hemp raw vegan smoothie). This past week I got a can of raw superfood protein smoothie mix from OrganicLives. This mix contains amazing things like organic hemp seed powder, organic Brazil nut powder, organic mesquite, organic coconut sugar*, organic lucuma, organic goji berry extract, organic acai, and organic vanilla. Throw some organic blueberries, organic macadamia nuts, and some organic Medjool dates in the mix & you have one tasty smoothie!
Equipment
- High-Powered Blender like a VitaMix
Ingredients
- 1 cup organic blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 1/2 cups filtered water
- 1/4 cup organic macadamia nuts
- 2-4 Medjool dates
- 2-4 Tbsp raw superfood protein smoothie mix
Directions
- Place all the ingredients in the blender and blend until smooth
- Serve and Enjoy!
Raw Superfood Protein Mix Blueberry Macadamia Smoothie
You can adjust the amount of Medjool dates and raw superfood protein smoothie mix to achieve a level of sweetness that you enjoy. Add additional water for a more liquid smoothie. The recipe is still good if you add more blueberries to the mix.
Some possible (untested) variations on the recipe above include: using a mix of blueberries and other berries, and replacing the macadamia nuts with other awesome nuts like Brazil nuts. Please share suggestions and thoughts in the comments section of this post.
I purchased my VitaMix, macadamia nuts, Medjool dates, and raw superfood protein smoothie mix from OrganicLives Enterprises.
Notes
- * coconut sugar is not technically raw but is non-the-less still a good choice for a sweetener (more details on coconut sugar).
Hi Everyone!
You might try this simplification on the recipe above — just use the berries and the raw superfood protein smoothie mix. The result is less heavy than the smoothie above, but is still really quite good. You might want to add more of the smoothie mix though.
Anyway, wishing you success, health, and happiness!
Your friend,
