In the continued experiments of using sweet potato in breakfast smoothies, I concocted this recipe, which is loaded with beta carotene, fiber, protien and complex carbs.
Ingredients:
1/2 roasted sweet potato, peeled
1 Fuji, Granny Smith, or your favorite apple, rough chopped(peel is okay if you have a Vitamix), or 1&1/2 cup organic, sugar-free applesauce
1 cup Almond milk
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons raw organic peanut butter (almond butter works, too, just a different flavor)
1/2 teaspoon organic cinnamon
Ice if you feel you need it, but I didn’t use any in this mixture.
Process:
Toss everything in the blender and puree until smooth.
It took me about 3 minutes to make this from start to finish (not counting roasting the potato which I did the day before), and walking around sipping the nutty, sweet, earthy drink was like being at the midway of the county fair! Yum!
