I love milk with cereal, but can't have dairy, so I turned to non-dairy alternatives.  However, the store bought milks have lots of additives that I avoid like preservatives, sugars, and flavorings. So I now make my own, which is easier, faster, and cheaper than going to the store to buy it!

Ingredients:

• 3/4 c water
• 1/4 c walnuts, rough chopped
• 1 date
• 1/2 vanilla bean

 

Instructions:

• Place walnuts and date into blender with about 1/4 c of water (enough to cover walnuts) and blend on high speed until smooth. 
• Add the remaining water and blend again. 
• Squeeze/strain mixture through cheese cloth, nut milk bag, or fine mesh strainer into glass container. 
• Scrape vanilla from shell and add to milk mixture. 
• Add additional water if you prefer thinner milk. 
• Seal container and refrigerate up to one week.
