Description
I'm not lying when I say this may be the best chocolate milkshake I've ever tasted; healthy or not. This is spot on to a sweet and delicious chocolate milkshake, but it's vegan, gluten free, and sugar free. This glass contains 14 g of protein and 19 g of fiber, and is a good source of B vitamins like thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), and folate (B9), as well as calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, and manganese

Ingredients
Serving(s)
- 2/3 cup Cooked navy beans
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup Raisins
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp Liquid monk fruit
Instructions
Cook Mode Off: Prevents screen dimming
- Add all ingredients to a small food processor, and blend until smooth. Transfer to a glass to drink as a milkshake
Notes
- Any cooked beans will work. I only used navy here because it was what I had in my fridge at the time. Chickpeas, black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, etc. will all work
- I've used raisins here as my natural sweetener, but any unsweetened dried fruit (like dates or figs) would work as well
- Either unsweetened vanilla or unsweetened original almond milk are good, as well as any other non-dairy or dairy based milks
- Liquid stevia will also work in place of liquid monk fruit
- For a vanilla milkshake, omit the cocoa powder, and use a light colored bean (like navy or chickpea)>
- You can also pour it into an airtight container and freeze it to get ice cream. Freeze for about 4 hours, mixing every hour or so with a spoon to break up ice crystals. Let sit out for about 20 minutes to soften before eating. I prefer the milkshake, as the "ice cream" is more like a chocolate ice, but it's still very good
