Sometimes I just want to treat myself to something special, a lick-it-off-your-spoon kind of breakfast. Sometimes, though, I want the treat WITHOUT all the preparation. So on this particular morning I had just that. It was fabulous and oh-so good …
For this quick fix I layered together juicy blueberries, cashew cream, chocolate granola, and fresh papaya.
Sweet Cashew Cream
1 cup cashews
1/2 cup coconut water
1 tablespoon maple syrup (or agave; non raw)
juice from 1/2 lemon
dash of vanilla
shake of sea salt
Combine everything in a high speed blender and blend until completely smooth. If you do not have a Vitamix you may want to soak your cashews and double your recipe to ensure a smooth cream. Once it’s blended it’s ready to eat!!
Layer everything (any fresh fruit, granola/seed mix) and eat! That’s it, about 30 seconds to a delicious breakfast.
I like Go Raw Chocolate Granola and Superfoods Cereal Cacao Crunch … both can be found at Whole Foods. If you’re up for it you can also make my granola, though it is a prepare-in-advance kind of breakfast. xo
