A variety of smoothies are easy using 
Thrive Life Freeze Dried Fruit.  

Smoothie base is 1 cup of unsweetened plant based almond milk, plant based protein powder, plant based unsweetened yogurt then toss in your favorite Thrive Life Fruit (single or combination, about 1/4 - 1/2 cup total). Add any preferred spices or flavor boosts. Blend and enjoy.

Pictured is an Applesauce smoothie using about 1/4 cup of Thrive Life Applesauce with a flavor boost of Cinnamon.  Also pictured is a strawberry smoothie.  I have add organic raw cocoa powder as a flavor boost to the strawberry smoothie.  Another new combination is the Thrive Life Mangoes and Thrive Life Pineapple with a flavor boost of unsweetened shredded coconut.  Delightful.

Today was a good day for a taste of Pumpkin.  I keep Farmer's Market Organic Pumpkin on hand for just such an occasion.  

Ingredients:

• 1 cup plant based unsweetened milk
• 1/4 - 1/3 cup of organic pumpkin puree
• 1 small banana
• 1/4 cup of plant based unsweetened yogurt 
• 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon of Simply Organic Pumpkin Spice
• a scoop of plant based protein powder
• 1/8 teaspoon of Vanilla
• drizzle with Date Lady Date Syrup to add extra sweetness and nutrients (optional)

​Method:

Blend all ingredients together in a high speed blender.  Pour into a tall glass and top with extra Pumpkin Spice (optional).

What better combination than strawberries and chocolate?  Now it's possible with no refined sugar thanks to Date Lady.  I decided to tweak my favorite cookie recipe and add in Thrive Life freeze dried strawberries (powdered using my Vitamix).  The results - delicious.  Added the chocolate goodness with Date Lady's Chocolate Spread.  These cookies are chewy.  I decided to store them in the refrigerator without the chocolate spread then add it right before serving.
