Labor day breakfast treats

Labor Day morning, I woke up to the birds chirping outside of my bedroom window, and snuggly puppies trying to wiggle their way underneath the covers.
I quickly made my breakfast "treats" and headed out to the patio to enjoy the morning smells and sounds...


Strawberries with "Milk" Chocolate Dip, and a Blue-Green Smoothie



"Milk" Chocolate Dip

1/2 C raw Cashews
3 tsp Carob Powder
2 tsp Vanilla
6 tsp G.D. Sweetener (or 4 Medjool dates soaked)
Dash of sea salt
1/4 C water (add it very slowly, in small portions, as you might not want to use it all)

Process until smooth. Pair with your favorite fruit, or enjoy it plain. Eat with someone (or on someone *giggle*) you love!

A Huge handful of Spinach
Frozen Blueberries
One big banana

oh - i was just thinking that you could probably do this with almonds and/or pecans for a deeper nuttier flavor. mmm. i may have to try that next.
