Snack Time with Almond Milk Goodies #CoolerwithAlmondBreeze

Over the last few years I’ve been slowly making changes to how we eat, with the goal in mind to eat as healthy as we can and have our food still taste good. We’ve made great strides and many of our adjustments have for me been even tastier options. For example I’ve never been a big milk drinker so switching to almond milk a few years ago was an easy switch for me.

smoothie and muffins

I love almond milk in my coffee, especially my mochas but it’s my main beverage besides water as I also use it in my cereals, hot chocolate, smoothies and now I’ve trying it in some baking items. One of my favorite snacks is having a smoothie and if I want a little extra something then I have my banana chocolate chip muffins with almond milk along with my smoothie. It’s oh so good, filling and tasty. In fact it’s my banana berry peach almond milk smoothie pictured above with the aforementioned muffins. I’m happy to share both recipes with you as you will love them as much as I do.


My husband and daughter both love the smoothies and the muffins. In fact the latest batch of muffins I made they were both trying to snag them before they were even on the rack to cool! 🙂

Snack Time with Almond Breeze

Ingredients

  • 1 scoop protein powder vanilla (optional) - I always use protein powder for an energy boost
  • 1 1/2 cups of Almond Breeze (can be unsweetened, sweetened or even vanilla)
  • 1 banana frozen or fresh
  • 1/2 cup frozen or fresh blueberries or blackberries or a mix of both
  • 1/2 cup frozen, fresh or canned peaches
  • 1 tbsp flaxseed (optional but oh so good for you)
  • If you use more fresh than frozen fruit add some ice. If you don't have some of the fruits but have the juice you can also use that but reduce the almond milk a bit. Depends on how thick you like it

Instructions

  1. Place the protein powder and flaxseed in before the other ingredients, it will mix better this way. Then add all other ingredients (liquids last) and blend.
  2. Now enjoy!

  3. How awesome! Everything looks delicious! I love almond milk and lately I’ve been seeing commercials for CASHEW milk, how tasty does that sound?

  7. This is really different – I love the idea of the peaches and the almond milk – they sound delish and healthy! I sneak ground flaxseed into recipes, too, often grind some whole seeds in a coffee grinder right before using so they are fresh as can be!

  8. I find almond milk to be too sweet for me to just have a glass straight up but I do like it in my cereal and even coffee. It is just that it is so darn expensive most times. I have to cut those coupons and catch it on sale.

  15. yumm to both recipes, I love the Almond Breeze and pick it up for myself at least once a month– I’m really excited about the Cashew milk that just come out – in hoping it is just as good. I’m going to try making your muffins in the morning thanks

  17. Love that Almond Breeze is Lactose Free,Gluten free and Dairy free too My son has Celiacs disease so this is perfect for us to drink and use in recipes too. I have a problem with milk so being lactose free is perfect for me.

  18. Some of my family drinks almond milk and some don’t. I’m scared to try it. I wouldn’t mind cooking with it though. That sounds like a safe way to ease into it. Lol.

  19. I’ve been trying to reduce our dairy intake. We’ve switched to Soy, but I’ve read that Almond Milk is even better. This is on my list to buy the next time we go grocery shopping.

  24. I’ve never tried Almond Milk, but your recipe makes me want to run out and get some. Of course when our snow melts. Bet it would be good in snow cream also.

  27. I love Almond Breeze…I especially like the unsweetened vanilla. It’s great for making smoothies. Thanks to your recipe you gave me the idea of adding flaxseed to my smoothies.

  28. I do think it’s great that it is lactose free! I haven’t tried Almond Breeze, but I think it would be great in recipes.

  30. Thanks so much for the recipes and Snack Time with Almond Milk Goodies #CoolerwithAlmondBreeze! The Smoothie sounds delicious! I have frozen bananas and frozen blueberries in my freezer right now! I’ve never tried Almond Breeze. I see it at the grocery store and I’m afraid to purchase it for several reasons. 1) it’s a bit on the pricy side, 2) I’m on a strict budget to get only what we need due to our financial situation and 3) if I did purchase it, what if I don’t like it and I wasted my money? I worry about these kind of things because we really haven’t had much in the house to eat as far a “treats” and extras because of the situation we are in right now! The muffins even looked good! That’s what I was thinking about doing with some of the blueberries, making blueberry muffins. I really appreciate you sharing these recipes with all of us! They sound so good! I wish they would make the Almond Breeze in a smaller container so that I can try it first! Thanks again for everything! I honestly do appreciate it! Michele 🙂
