Banana and Date Smoothie

Similarly to a few of the recipes that I’ve included, this banana and date smoothie recipe has come from agirlnamedally.  Although I won’t eat as many bananas in a day as Ally does, my love of dates could possibly almost match hers, and a mixture of the two is fantastic.

Ingredients

3-7 bananas
7 dates

Instructions

1. Cut bananas into slices and remove seeds from dates.
2. Adding slices of banana and dates to blender gradually, pulse until mixture reaches a smooth liquid consistency.

Breakfast Salad

It's always fun to try out new things, so instead of having my usual bowl of cereal for breakfast this morning, I chose to make myself a slight variation of this breakfast salad that I found at Natural Delights.  Although this salad is very simple, preparing it took much longer than preparing my typical bowl of cereal, but it's the summer holidays for me and I'm glad that I used that bit more time to make an enjoyable breakfast.

Ingredients
2 oranges
1 banana
6 dates

Instructions

1. Peel both oranges and separate into segments.  Places orange segments into bowl.
2. Remove the seeds from the dates and chop the dates into pieces.  Add to bowl.
3. Top with slices of banana and enjoy!
