When I came to Eileen for some suggestions on something I could take out on my 2 hour trail rides with my horses or on long hikes, she suggested the following fortified smoothie recipe to keep my energy up without weighing me down or spiking my blood sugar.
This recipe is still my “go to” trail/hiking snack for hiking/long trail rides..or even if I’m on the go.
MT. CAPRA’S GOAT WHEY SMOOTHIE
2 heaping tbls. Mt. Capra Goat Whey
8 oz. unsweetened coconut milk, oat milk, or rice milk
1 tbls freshly ground flax seed
1/2 cup fresh fruit of choice
stevia to taste
Put all the above into a blender and puree until smooth. If this recipe is to be carried with you to be used later in the day, Eileen suggested partially freezing the smoothie so it would remain cold .
My favorite combos for fruit are: Peaches & strawberries, mango & papaya, papaya & blueberries, kiwi & papaya or raspberries & peaches.
If you don’t have time to freeze the whole mixture, the quick version is to use frozen unsweetened fruit instead of fresh.
A Votre Sante,
