Saturday Morning Cartoons Breakfast Cereal Smoothie

Makes about 4 cups

This tastes just like breakfast cereal with milk. Well, you know if your mom was like my mom and didn't give you super sweetened cereals with white sugar on top... Dang hippies. I mean, thanks, Mom!

Maybe it’s the figs and nuts mixing together to taste like milk, maybe it’s the extra flax I accidentally dumped in. Definitely has something to do with the salt in the celery. Either way, blend it up and curl up on the couch with your favorite cartoons!

Wrap yourself in a blanket and eat it from a bowl with a spoon for a more authentic Saturday morning experience.
Ingredients

* 2 celery ribs, chop small to break down the tough strings
* ½ cucumber
* 4 dried white figs, soaked
* ½ banana
* ⅓ cup pistachio meats, soaked 4hrs, sprouted overnight
* filtered water, enough for blending
* 3 tablespoons ground flax seeds

Preparation

This was my first time trying to sprout stashes. I soaked them four hours, picked out the ones that looked like they might sprout and let them sit in a wet towel overnight, a little more than 12 hours.

I think with more time they could have really sprouted, but I’m not sure. I couldn’t find any information on how to sprout stashes.
