Serves: 1 Prep time: 5 minutes
½ cup frozen blueberries
½ cup frozen cranberries
¼ organic lemon with the rind (optional)
1 tablespoon almond butter
1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds (see note below)
1 tablespoon chia seeds (see note below)
1 tablespoon hemp seeds (see note below)
2 raw walnuts (see note below)
2 raw Brazil nuts (see note below)
¼ avocado
½ tablespoon extra virgin coconut butter
½ cup unsweetened almond or hemp milk
½ cup water
Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. You can also add all ingredients to a widemouthed quart-size Mason jar and use a hand-held immersion blender and drink it right from the jar. Be sure to add enough water so that the smoothie is drinkable but still thick (total liquid should be an inch or two above the other ingredients before blending). You can also make it thicker and eat it with a spoon.
NOTE
:
To activate the enzymes in the seeds and nuts in any smoothie recipe for easier digestion, you can soak them ahead of time. Fill a bowl with enough water to cover the seeds or nuts and soak for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight if time permits.
