FIG AND CHIA BREAKFAST SHAKE

Fig and Chia Breakfast Shake image

This fig shake is a great way to start your morning. I wanted something different in a smoothie and this is, to me, quite delicious. I have this for my breakfast and it keeps me full until lunch. It's a great on-the-go breakfast, but will keep in the fridge for a few hours so you can enjoy it as an afternoon snack.

FRESH FIG AND DATE SHAKE

Many of us who frequent farmers' markets this time of year bring home far more figs than we need. This thick, date-sweetened smoothie is a great way to get rid of the extras.
