In honor of tomorrow’s Las Vegas Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network’s Walk for Food Allergy event, we (hubby as the mixer, me as the taster) decided to create a new Vegan, dairy, egg and nut free smoothie. Of course, we are now slave to our little Magic Bullet and 9-year-old daughter. The recipe is a winner!
At my Gratefulfoodie booth at the Walk, I will hand out coasters with the recipe printed on one side. Come by and say hi!!! The recipe calls for a nice assortment of fruit and Whole Soy & Co Vanilla yogurt and coconut milk (optional).
We added a few strawberries and the result was great. The recipe is simple and basic and does well with experimentation.
I am writing this from the laptop I borrowed from my son, so when I get back to Reno, I’ll type up the recipe proper and add it to my recipe tab…but, until then here it is…

One of the hardest things I find about managing both life threatening food allergies and asthma is talking to others. I hate to be the one that might be perceived as demanding, pushing or for asking too much. What I now know, fourteen years later, is that honest, clear information presented with kindness works!..
