Avocado smoothies are delicious and nutritious! Here’s a simple recipe to try:
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup spinach (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- Ice cubes (optional, for a colder smoothie)
Instructions:
- Peel and pit the avocado, and peel the banana.
- Place the avocado, banana, spinach, milk, and sweetener (if using) into a blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add more milk.
- If desired, add ice cubes and blend again until smooth.
- Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
Variations:
- Creamier Texture: Add a scoop of Greek yogurt or avocado for an even creamier texture.
- Protein Boost: Add a scoop of protein powder (vanilla or unflavored) to make it more filling.
- Flavor Enhancements: Experiment with adding a dash of vanilla extract, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a squeeze of lime juice for added flavor.
Enjoy your avocado smoothie as a nutritious breakfast or a refreshing snack!
