[Recipe] Date Tropical Smoothie

 

Ah, now here’s a great tip from Sommer at A Spicy Perspective: throw together the ingredients for a dozen of your favorite smoothies and freeze the ingredients in one big ziplock bag or in single or double batches, depending on how many you usually make each morning. Now isn’t that a good idea to get a head start on your day?

I also love her tip about freezing tinned coconut milk in ice cube trays. Thanks Sommer! It’s a great way to prevent waste – and save money – as it’s not the first time I’ve found a container with the last drop of coconut milk that has gone off at the back of the refrigerator. And it’s too expensive to waste like that!

Here’s what Sommer has to say about her favorite smoothie recipe (you’ll find it at the end of the post) …

These babies are hearty, with a satisfying complexity that will keep you coming back for more. The roasted macadamia nut flavor and touch of salt, combined with the earthy flavor of the dates and bright tropical fruits, creates something magical. Plus, they are naturally gluten free and dairy free, using coconut milk and rice milk as the base.

Recipe: Date Tropical Smoothie

To make freezer bags you need to plan in advance.  And in advance of packing the freezer bags you want to freeze the coconut milk.  I’d suggest doing this the day before you plan to make up your bags.

Serves 10 large; 12 regular

Ingredients:

  • 2 – 14 ounce cans lite unsweetened Coconut Milk
  • 2 ripe Mangoes
  • 2 ripe Papayas
  • 3 Bananas
  • 1 pound roasted Macadamia nuts
  • 30 Dates
  • 10 cups Rice Milk

 

Directions:

  1. Before you want to pack your freezer bags, shake the cans of Coconut Milk to mix. Then pour the coconut milk into two ice cube trays (standard ice cube trays with 16 cubes per tray.) Place in the freezer.
  2. When you are ready to pack the bags: Cut a small slit in each Date and remove the pit. Peel and cut the Bananas* into chunks the same size as the coconut ice cubes.
  3. Peel, seed, and chop the Mangoes* and Papayas* into chunks the size of the coconut ice cubes.
  4. Place all items, including the Macadamia nuts, into zip bags and place in the freezer, until frozen solid. Keep the rice milk in the fridge.
  5. For EACH smoothie, place in the blender: 3 coconut milk cubes, 2 mango chunks, 2 papaya chunks, 1 banana chunk, 1/4 cup macadamia nuts, 3 dates, 1 cup rice milk. Puree until smooth and thick.
  6. Enjoy :o)

*  Note: It’s worth freezing the fruit in a single layer in advance; it much easier then to distribute and separate them later.

Transform Your Mornings: The Ultimate Vinegar Poached Egg Hack

Update Unleash Your Inner Chef with This Simple Poached Egg Hack Have you ever looked at a poached egg and thought, "That looks way too fancy for my kitchen?" You’re not alone! Poached eggs are often perceived as an intimidating dish, yet they can be one of the most elegant and delicious ways to start your day. With just a little help from a viral hack, you can transform this classic into a staple that adds pizzazz to any breakfast! Why Poached Eggs Make the Perfect Breakfast Besides their fancy reputation, poached eggs bring a wealth of nutritional benefits. Rich in protein, they are a great way to kick-start your day without the sugar rush associated with pastries. Replacing a sugary breakfast with a poached egg on toast can help maintain steady energy levels through your morning. Furthermore, you can easily personalize your poached eggs with toppings like sliced avocado or fresh herbs, making each meal a little culinary adventure. Mastering the Viral Vinegar Hack So, what’s the magic secret behind perfect poached eggs? It’s as simple as a little vinegar! Thanks to social media star Jason Ortynski, we now have an easy approach that employs a vinegar bath for eggs before they hit the simmering water. Mix equal parts water and vinegar in a small bowl, crack your egg into the mixture, and let it sit for about ten minutes. The vinegar creates a jelly-like coating around the egg white which helps keep everything nice and tidy when you drop it in boiling water. Say goodbye to the chaotic strands of egg whites that usually float around during poaching! Real Experiences with the Vinegar Hack Many home cooks have shared their success stories using this simple method. Picture it: a busy morning with little time to spare yet needing something nutritious and delicious. After following the vinegar soak method, you might find that your poached egg turns out absolutely stunning. Some even claim it earns them 'Michelin-star quality' results that make every breakfast feel special! Microwave for Extra Efficiency? If you're still unsure about pot poaching, there’s another time-saving method to explore – microwave poached eggs! This technique is especially popular among busy individuals and can be done in just a minute. Fill a microwave-safe bowl with water, crack an egg in, and microwave for about 45 seconds for a perfectly cooked poached egg. Using the microwave not only saves time but also minimizes cleanup, which is perfect for hectic mornings. Whether using vinegar or the microwave, both methods ease you into poaching eggs like a pro! Poached Eggs: A Gateway to a Healthier Morning Embracing the poached egg trend doesn’t just elevate your breakfast game; it opens up the conversation about making healthier choices. Reducing processed and sugary breakfasts can have lasting effects on how we feel throughout the day. Switching gears to protein-packed meals like poached eggs can leave you feeling energized and ready to tackle whatever your schedule throws at you. Join the Poached Egg Revolution! This vinegar poached egg hack makes it easier than ever to whip up a beautiful breakfast in no time. So next time you think you don’t have time for a healthy breakfast, remember this simple trick and give poaching eggs a try. Not only will your dishes impress, but they’ll help keep your dietary goals on track! If you're eager to broaden your culinary horizons and make every breakfast a delicious affair, why not dive into the world of poached eggs? These little gems could become the star of your breakfast table!
