Recipe Description:
This avocado smoothie is such a treat! My recipe is based on the one that my dad used to make for me growing up. He fell in love with it in Brazil, there they call it vitamina de abacate.
Recipe Ingredients:
1 frozen ripe banana, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
1 avocado
Juice of 1 lime or lemon
8 oz plain full fat yogurt or milk (non-dairy works too)
1 tsp spirulina or 1 handful of spinach/kale
A few drops of stevia or a tsp of preferred sweetener (optional)
Recipe
Instructions:
Peel, slice, and freeze 1 ripe banana.
Add the banana and the rest of the ingredients (except for the sweetener) to the blender.
Blend until smooth and creamy.
Depending on the size of the banana and avocado it may need a little extra milk to help it blend. Taste to see if it needs sweetener. If it does add a few drops of stevia or a tsp of raw honey and blend one more time.
Pour into two 12 oz glasses and enjoy!
