Then you are going to LOVE this dreamy vegan smoothie. All you need is 1 blender, 6 ingredients, 5 minutes. And you’ve got the perfect on-the-go breakfast. This smoothie is so good, I’ve been having it every single day. It’s so rich, creamy and delicious you are going to be making it on repeat. And did I mention it’s super healthy?! I love filling my smoothies with nourishing foods and this one is no exception; this coffee shake is loaded with so much goodness. It’s your morning coffee and your nourishing breakfast all blended into one big, luscious drink. Start your day with a big glass of this easy smoothie and you’ll feel full and energized for hours. Yes, there’s caffeine, but there are also complex carbs, healthy fats and adaptogens. All of these can help you start the day in the best possible way. This smoothie has no added sugar and is sweetened with fiber-rich dates and bananas. Cashews add creaminess and a good amount of healthy fats. Coffee is an amazing source of antioxidants. And adaptogens like maca powder and ashwagandha offer an extra dose of nutrition. What are adaptogens, you might wonder. Adaptogens are healing plants that help the body adapt to stressors of any kind. Want to learn more about the benefits of adaptogens, maca and ashwagandha?

Then drained and rinsed* - ¼cupor 1 shot of espresso - 2Deglet Noor or 1 big Medjool dates,pitted - ½tspvanilla extract - ½tspashwagandha powder,optional - ½tspmaca powder,optional ### Instructions - Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy. - Enjoy! ### Notes * Soaking nuts overnight makes them a whole lot healthier (you can read more about it [here](https://www.foodmatters.com/article/the-benefits-of-soaking-nuts-and-seeds) ). But if you want to make this smoothie right now, you can skip this step. Unsoaked cashews are going to be harder to pulverize. So, this is what I do. I add all my ingredients to a high-speed blender, including the cashews, and I blend them on high for a minute or two. I let the smoothie rest for 5 minutes. And then I blend it again for 1 more minute. It should be super creamy by now.
