Notes

Dates: feel free to substitute honey or even maple syrup as your sweetener - 1-2 tablespoons of either will work, but feel free to add more, if desired.
Other Add-Ins: handful of spinach, frozen zucchini, 1/3 cup plain greek yogurt, 1/4 cup rolled oats, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, or scoop of dairy-free ice cream.
