Let Me Love You Smoothie

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup frozen pitaya (dragon fruit) chunks (look for pink dragon fruit for the color)   - Or 10oz Pre-frozen dragon fruit smooth pouch kit
• 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
• 1/2 cup frozen banana
• 1/4 ripe avocado
• 2 pitted Medjool dates (start with 2, add more if you prefer sweeter) - Sarah preferred dates!
• 1/2 tbsp sugar
• 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk

Instructions

1. Soak the dates in warm water for 5-10 minutes. Then chop finely.
2. Add the unsweetened coconut milk and dates to your blender first. Blend them on high for a minute to try to get them completely integrated.
3. Add the frozen pitahaya, frozen strawberries, banana, and avocado.
4. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. If it’s too thick, add a splash more coconut milk (a tablespoon at a time) until you reach your desired consistency. If it’s too thin, add a few more frozen fruit chunks.
5. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade “Let Me Love You” Smoothie!

Tips & Variations:

• Sweetness: Adjust the number of dates to your preference. You can also add a tiny drizzle of maple syrup or agave if you need more sweetness.
• Thickness: For a thicker smoothie bowl consistency, reduce the amount of coconut milk and add more frozen fruit.
• Flavor Boosts: A tiny squeeze of lime juice can brighten the flavors.
• Creaminess: The avocado and banana contribute significantly to the creaminess. Don’t skip them!
