Posted By Leslie Cerier On February 18, 2013 @ 9:13 pm In Fruit Smoothies Every Day,Leslie Cerier Recipes | No Comments

blueberry-coconut-shake-with-acai [1]This breakfast shake is so thick and delicious that it reminds me of the malteds I use to get when I was a kid. And between the blueberries, coconut milk, hemp seeds, and almond butter, it’s a real nutritional powerhouse. You might find, as I do, that a couple of glasses will keep you going for most of the day.

Serves: 4

1/4 cup hemp seeds
¼ cup water
3 tablespoons agave or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Put all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Serve immediately.

Variation:
For a creamy mousse, refrigerate overnight, and eat it with a spoon the next day!
