We are on a constant quest to get more vegetables into the day. But dessert is not usually where it happens! Cauliflower brings a neutral and creamy base to this unusual shake and its subtle vegetal flavor blends nicely with traditional chai flavors.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
The result is a filling, sweet tooth-satisfying milkshake with the added benefit of cauliflower\u2019s high fiber, vitamin, and antioxidant content.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This shake is simplest to make using a chai seasoning blend. But if you don\u2019t have that you can achieve a similar result with \u00bc teaspoons of ground ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, and black pepper.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Try serving it with a dollop of coconut whip cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So good (for you) that you may want to sneak vegetables into all your desserts. Mums the word.\u00a0<\/p>\n
