This week we decided to play with one of our favorite child-hood foods, the Elvis sandwich. But we are looking for something a little more nutritious. Okay, well let’s be honest.. a LOT more nutritious than white bread slathered in peanut butter and fried in a skillet of melted butter (mmm…). So, we took some creative license here! What we came up with is what I like to call, the Green Elvis. It’s vegan and perfect for breakfast, as a snack, or dessert . And wouldn’t you know.. bananas are popping up all around us right now.
Green Elvis Smoothie
1/2 c organic almond butter (we prefer fresh ground from our local health food store)
1 c coconut milk (any nut-milk would really work)
2 bananas
2 handfuls of organic spinach leaves (about 1-2 cups loosely filled)
2 Tbs hemp seeds
1 Tbl orange blossom honey
2 Tbl Conscious Coconut Oil
+a pinch of coarse salt if your almond butter is unsalted
Combine. Puree. Enjoy
