I’ve always loved almond butter. It was love at first bite! Almond butter is a great pantry item. Not only is it delicious spread onto toast or shaken into in salad dressings, it adds richness and easy, nutritious calories to smoothies. This almond-based vegan smoothie tastes wonderful. Soft and sweet, it is ideal to sip on if you’re trying to keep your weight up during cancer treatment, or if mouth soreness is giving you trouble swallowing, or if you just feel like a nutritious sweet treat for your breakfast. Time to get the blender out!
Preparation
1. In a blender, blend all ingredients together until smooth. Taste for sweetness then serve immediately.
Ingredients:
- 1 frozen ripe banana
- 3 tablespoons almond butter
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 ice cubes

Ann's Tips and Tricks
If you don’t have almond milk on hand, use plain unsweetened soy or regular milk, which also have the benefit of having more protein than almond milk.
