                    Almonds and bananas are both very high in B vitamins, magnesium and potassium, all which relax the body and promote a good night's sleep. This is also a good  protein-carb  bedtime snack for diabetics or dieters to prevent the blood sugar crash in the morning.  Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                1 large, ripe banana  |  
                                                3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk  |  
                                                1/2 tsp cinnamon  |  
                                                1/4 tsp ground ginger  |  
                                                *optional: 1 tsp ground flaxseed  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. Combine all the ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. Add a bit of extra almond milk or water if necessary to achieve the consistency you like. 2. I like this served cold (sometimes I even pop the peeled banana in the freezer for an hour) but it's fine room temperature too.                              |
