The last recipe we send to the list is always a bit tricky. It needs to be strong, as it’s the last one before we go on break*.

This one, actually, came easily.

“Let’s make a smoothie that tastes like our wedding cake.”

So we did and this thing is outstanding.

      Chia seeds work fairly well for binding and thickening. Squash, too. Or, just skip ’em!

      It’s one of our absolute favorites. Kind of like a craft cocktail, but in smoothie form 🙂
