Banana-Date Shake

Banana-Date Shake (w/ Walnuts): 1/2 c walnuts, 1/8 c steel cut oats (optional; I like using them whenever possible b/c it makes it so much more filling; you can also sub Quinoa for oats), 1 c water, 1 tsp honey, 1 drop vanilla, (blend into walnut "milk"); 2 ripe bananas, 2 dates, (blend till smooth), 1 c milk, 2 c ice (blend to desired consistency).
