A creamy, cacao and cauliflower smoothie that tastes as sweet as an ice cream shake with no added sugar and packed with nutrients.
Ingredients
  • 5 cups oat milk
  • 8 medjool dates
  • 2 cups frozen cauliflower
  • 3 tbsp. cacao powder (healthier version) OR your favorite vegan, organic chocolate protein powder
  • 5 tbsp. raw cacao nibs
  • 1 drop of doTERRA peppermint oil (or during flu season swap this for elderberry syrup)
Instructions
  1. Add cauliflower, medjool dates and protein powder to the high speed blender
  2. Blend until desired consistency (typically 30-45 seconds)
  3. Add 1 drop of doTERRA peppermint oil
  4. Blend for 10 seconds
  5. Add cacao nibs
  6. Blend for 3-5 seconds (just long enough to mix through but not puree the cacao nibs)
  7. Enjoy!
Notes
It's easiest to make smoothies in a high speed blender. If you have a traditional blender, blend with less ingredients and let frozen veggies defrost first.
