Ingredients

For the base smoothie:

  • 1 large banana frozen
  • 2 large pitted dates optional as sweetener
  • 1/2 cup cauliflower rice frozen
  • 1 scoop Garden of Life Raw Organic Protein unflavored
  • 1/2 cup plant milk of choice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp salt

For the two sides:

  • 2 tbsp chopped dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries

Instructions

  • In a large blender, add the banana, dates, cauliflower rice, protein powder, almond milk, vanilla extract and salt. Blend until smooth.
  • Once the smoothie is blended, pour 1/2 of the smoothie into a measuring cup. Stir in the chocolate chips to that one portion of the smoothie.
  • With the other half of the smoothie still in the blender, add the frozen strawberries and blend again until it is bright pink.
  • Very carefully pour both smoothies into one glass at the same time, creating the side-by-side smoothie effect.
  • Either stir together or enjoy separately, and enjoy!
