Lemon Cream Pie Indulgence Smoothie

Ingredients

• 4 pitted Medjool dates
• 1/4 cup blanched and slivered almonds
• zest of 1/2 a large lemon
• 2 large juicy lemons (about 1/4 cup juice)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 1 cup frozen riced cauliflower
• 1 cup unsweetened plant-based milk (I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk)
• 1-2 cups ice cubes
• lemon zest and/or coconut whipped cream for garnish, optional

Instructions

1. In a high-speed blender, add all the ingredients except ice. Blend until smooth and creamy.
2. Add 1 cup of ice and blend again until no ice chunks remain. Taste and add another cup of ice, and blend again if a frostier smoothie is desired. Taste again and adjust flavors and sweetness if needed.
3. Pour into one or two glasses depending on if this is a meal replacement or a filling snack. Serve immediately. Ganish with fresh lemon zest and/or coconut whipped cream if desired. I also added a spring of fresh mint to make it extra fancy & fun!
