This Banana Almond Hemp Shake is another great recipe by Kristen Suzanne, shared with us by the people at [url:1]Manitoba Harvest[/url]. Kristen Suzanne has penned numerous raw food cookbooks, ranging from soups to salads to straight up chocolate. She follows a broader whole food diet these days, but still blogs at Kristen’s Raw. And she still whips up healthy drinks, like this simple hemp shake.
Manitoba Harvest is a top producer of hemp seeds and they also make a great range of pure, plant-based hemp protein powders. For the highest level of protein and the creamiest smoothie, I recommend trying their Hemp Pro 70.
