Rawzilla's Date Shake Smoothie

"I made this at work in my Magic Bullet. It was delicious! It may not be original, but I made it on my own. I didn't see one posted here exactly like it. The only thing I might do different next time is double it! Or I might add some cacoa! mmmmmm...."

  1. Yummy! I added a big dash of cinnamon which really complemented the banana. No way does this need agave nectar at least with the type of dates I used. I used 3 medium California, Majool dates (soft dark) and it was sweet enough. I peeled the dates so they would blend more smoothly. I used 2/3 cup original rice dream as I found using a 1/2 cup too thick. I would like to try this again with almond milk.
     
  2. Very, very nice tasting smoothie! I used 5, a frozen banana & 2/3 cup of almond milk & had a wonderful breakfast drink! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's PAC]
     
  3. Delicious! I used honey and almond milk. Loved it! Will make again! Made for Pick a Chef(PAC).
     
  4. Wow! This was really good and it was thick like a shake. I will definitely have this again! Thanks! Reviewed for Healthy Choices ABC tag.

Hi, I am Rawzilla aka Chef Mommie. I have started this new account to go with my new found lifestyle of being a Raw Foodist. The desire came about before the beginning of the year and I basically started on the 1st of January. It was not set out to be a New Years resolution or anything, it just happened in that timing. My main desire for this new way of life came about in doing research to help eliminate pain in my body. Told for the last ten years (and rebuking it) that I have Fybromyalgia, I decided to make lifestyle changes to see if it would help. So far the Raw lifestyle has eliminated 80% of my pain, helped me think clearer and see clearer and has helped me with water retention. I am very excited to see how far I can go with this. 100 % Raw is really hard to achieve, I would say today I have been about 95% Raw. Would have been 100% but I am snacking on dry Ezekial cereal. Plus I love the Ezekial breads, especially the sesame. I will eat free range eggs cooked , so every now and then I will splurge on having a healthier french toast. My goal for the week would be 75% Raw. I won't be giving up my Chef Mommie account because I still have to cook for my family. My dh will eat my raw foods, but he only wants them as side dishes. Since my family isn't converted I will still be cooking for them and rating recipes under my orginal account.
