Avocado Smoothie Recipe 🥑🍌🍃
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe avocado 🥑
- 1 banana 🍌
- 1 cup spinach (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup almond milk 🥛 (or any milk of your choice)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (for extra creaminess and protein)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (for sweetness)
- 1/2 cup ice cubes (for a cool and refreshing texture)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into your blender.
- Peel the banana and add it to the blender.
- Add spinach to the blender. You can use fresh or frozen spinach depending on your preference.
- Add the Liquids and Creaminess:
- Pour in almond milk (or your milk choice) and Greek yogurt. This will help make your smoothie nice and creamy.
- Sweeten and Chill:
- Add honey or maple syrup to taste. Adjust the sweetness according to your preference.
- Add the ice cubes to make your smoothie extra cold and refreshing.
- Blend the Smoothie:
- Blend on high until all ingredients are smooth and well combined. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Pour the smoothie into a glass, and optionally garnish with a slice of banana or a sprinkle of chia seeds for extra texture.
Tips:
- For Extra Protein: Add a scoop of protein powder if you’d like to boost your smoothie with more protein.
- Use Frozen Fruits: If you want a thicker, colder smoothie, you can use frozen banana or frozen avocado chunks.
- Customize the Sweetness: Feel free to adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to your taste. If you prefer a more natural sweetness, you can skip sweeteners altogether.
