The Shaken Sweet Potato

January 25, 2011

Smooth, creamy, frosty, and spiced. This shake has got to be one of the best combination of flavors in existence. Or at least for a morning treat.

For a tasty autumn treat in the middle of winter, I present to you, The Shaken Sweet Potato (it’s wellness in a glass)…

The Shaken Sweet Potato

1/2-1 cup cooked sweet potato or yam
1/2-1 cup almond milk [or your favorite]
1 scoop protein powder
1 tsp maca powder [optional for an adrenal helper and energy booster]
1/2 tsp cinnamon + 1/8 tsp pumpkin pie spice [or nutmeg]
6 drops liquid Vanilla Creme Stevia [or sweetener of choice- honey would be amazing]
fresh ginger slices depending on your liking
Ice [lots of it]

Blend all and serve with a few shakes of cinnamon and a slice of digestive-aiding ginger.
