I love this! My children LOVE this! It's just sweet and flavorful and wonderful! The kids ask for it at least once a week, and get super jealous when I make it for me. AND IT'S SO GOOD FOR YOU! Raw beets are an excellent
blood purifier. Coconut liquid is packed with minerals and electrolytes. Strawberries are high in vitamin C.
1 1⁄2 c coconut liquid from young Thai coconut (best raw, or use coconut water. I buy them by the case at Costco) 1 large carrot, cleaned and cut into 3 pieces (or 6 baby carrots)
1⁄4 of a medium beet, raw, peeled (we grow these in our garden and peel them, cut them into quarters and throw into the freezer)
1⁄4 c cashews
1⁄4 c chopped dates
2 t vanilla
12 frozen strawberries
optional: 1 t flax seeds or 1 t chia seeds
Pureé all ingredients except the strawberries in your high-power blender for 90 seconds. Add the strawberries and pureé on high until smooth.
My little guy? He skips the jealousy part and goes straight to, "Momma, a moo-ee peeeeeeeeeeeze?" How can I resist those baby blues?

I know how you love your quinoa, so when I saw this recipe I thought of you. I know there are a few ingredients that might need to be modified, but it sounds really good! Let me know if you try it (or maybe you've already tried something similar).
