A vegan version of my basic fruit & dairy smoothie, but in this version almond and coconut milks team up for a dairy-free delight! High sugar fruits mellow its lower sugar and acidic counterparts while the coconut milk adds a creamy texture. Avoid adding ice as it will dilute your creation and leave you reaching for sweeteners. Instead, freeze 1/3 to 1/2 of your ingredients. I like to keep the fruit in the freezer. For a quick breakfast, blend up the fruit and nuts the night before and freeze in ice trays. In the morning, add your cubes to the milks and blend! 

With a double dose of espresso, banana, and a serving of nuts, this breakfast concoction gets you moving! I've tested this recipe with canned coconut milk, full fat Greek yogurt, and half-n-half, and the results have been equally delicious. I'm a cream, no sugar kind of gal... A cappuccino or dark brew with half-n-half. Black coffee drinkers may want a dairy ingredient with less fat while our cream and sugar friends should add honey or sugar or even increase the amount of dairy or banana.
