    I have a blendtec blender that will grind up most anything--you can try this with a normal blender but the almonds and dates may not blend up as well.

  5. 5
    Each cycle is 45 seconds long.
  6. 6
    Pour the contents into 4-quart sized containersthey should each be about 2/3 full.
  7. 7
    Blend the bananas and pineapple with about a cup of water to keep things moving in the blender and add equally to the 4 containers.
  8. 8
    Blend up the blueberries with some water and mix into the quart containers.
  9. 9
    Ive also added, an avocado, strawberries, oranges or organic apples in place of the blueberries or if I dont have enough blueberriesjust to make enough to fill up the rest of the containers.
