OMG!!! This recipe is the closest thing I’ve tasted to Salted Caramel Icecream. In reality I think it tastes better than icecream, because you don’t have the thick congesting aftertaste or the bloat. Salty and sweet - YUM!

The recipe was created by Jessica Sepel from JHS Health. Her cookbooks are rock star if you’re looking for a balanced approach to nutrition and excellent recipes. This smoothie Is best enjoyed as a sweet treat. It contains a lot of natural sugars, so probably won’t sustain you if you use it as a meal substitute. But it tastes incredible!!!
