This well-balanced milkshake is the perfect late-summer breakfast. Slightly sweet, yet herbaceaus, and full of protein, fiber and fat to start off your day.
So simple, so good, so relaxing. So purple!
This is one of those forgiving recipes that allows you to go different ways based on your preferences or what you have on hand — like swapping out the almond for cashew , or excluding the nut/ seed altogether for a slightly lighter version.
