Healthy Shamrock Shake Recipes


If you are anything like me, March used to equal college basketball, spring break and of course, the shamrock shake from McDonald's. Since going completely dairy (and garbage) free in October, the shamrock shake doesn't really have a place in my diet anymore. I found some recipes for paleo/vegan shamrock shakes...SO GOOD! Ok, not exactly like the McDonald's version, but they are delicious in their own way and filled with ingredients that are good for you, and not chemical crap.

Version 1 (fastpaleo.com) -combine all ingredients in blender
  • Large banana, peeled, sliced and frozen
  • 2 cups honeydew melon chunks
  • 2 kiwifruit, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup lightly packed kale
  • Ice
Version 2 (eatnourishing.com) -combine all ingredients in blender

  • One frozen banana
  • 1/2 cup of peaches
  • 3 or 4 almond milk ice cubes (or 1/2 cup almond milk)
  • A generous handful of spinach
  • 1/4 cup of mint leaves
