VACATION in a cup

BANANA.ALMOND MILK.IMAGINATION.

BAM!!!!!!

BANANA MILKSHAKE.

Vacation in a cup. 

I'm telling you...

Two ingredients.

Does it get any simpler than that?

Here's how to make Homemade Almond Milk. 

~Soak ONE cup of almonds (*preferably organic*) with TWO cups of water (the best quality if you can) for 1 to 2 days, changing the water halfway through

~After the almonds have taken their extra-long water bath, drain & rinse

~Add NEW water to the ONE cup of almonds

~Pour the new almonds & water mixture into a POWERFUL blender

~Pulverize the stuff!! (I use a Bullet)

~Take the blended mixture & strain it through a cheese cloth to squeeze out the milk

~Keep the milk in the fridge for ONLY a couple of days or else it'll go sour! 

~Now you have leftover almond "pulp" you can either use to bake cookies or maybe even as a coating for a SCD "fried chicken". Who knows!! There's no harm in experimenting. :D

FOR THE MILKSHAKE?

(that's the picture tantalizing you at the top of this post; I know you're going out to buy organic almonds tomorrow...SCD MILKSHAKES ARE IN YOUR FUTURE)

~Add some very ripe frozen banana chunks to your almond milk & toss that in your blender.

You're going to the islands for dessert tonight.
