Smoothie of the Week: Orange-Date Pancake Sauce

Orange - Date Pancake Syrup: Delicious, Healthy, Gluten-Free

SmoothieMoves has a little joke that goes "Tomato is a fruit, right? Then Ketchup is a Smoothie?" I've been able to expand the definition of smoothie... today's pure fruit, no refined sugar, gluten-free smoothie falls into that category and it is DELISH!

Put the following in the canister of your Vitamix:

• 1/2 Container of unsweetened Frozen Orange Juice Concentrate
• 6 pitted Medjool Dates
• 1/2 Banana
• handful of dried shredded Coconut (unsweetened)
• 1/4 C. Almond Mylk or Water

Spin it up and pour over your fave pancake... I personally love it over the gluten-free toaster waffles I eat. Yum yum yum!

<<BONUS: Try this delish breakfast smoothie with a tablespoon of the Orange Date sauce as one of its ingredients

>>Try it over ice cream, plain yogurt

>>Try it as a scrumptious salad dressing

>>Other ideas?  Maybe a fruit dip?

To your better and better health, ~Cynthia
