Directions

Add flax seeds to a blender. Blend the seeds until they form a powder/paste.
Add the blueberries, tofu, agave, and almond milk to the blender and puree until all of the ingredients are combined, about 2 minutes.

Chef Tips

If your blender isn’t very powerful, in Step 1 start blending the flax seeds and gradually adding ¼ cup of the almond milk to help them blend into a fine puree. Go to step 2 adding the rest of the almond milk and the other ingredients.

If you want to lighten the texture up, blend a little crushed ice into it at the end
