Avocado Smoothie
This avocado smoothie is ultra creamy, nourishing and packed with healthy fats. It tastes like a milkshake but is made with just 5 simple ingredients.
Servings: 1
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup frozen avocado chunks or 1 fresh avocado
- 1 scoop (25 grams) vanilla protein protein powder
- 1-2 medjool dates
- Handful of spinach
- 4-5 ice cubes if needed
Instructions
- Place all ingredients into a high speed blender. Blend until smooth.
- Pour smoothie into a glass and enjoy!
Notes
- Use frozen avocado: For a thicker, creamier smoothie, I recommend using frozen avocado chunks. You can also freeze ripe avocado yourself!
- Sweetener swap: If you don’t have dates, try a splash of maple syrup or a bit of banana for natural sweetness.
- No protein powder? You can leave it out, or try adding hemp seeds or a scoop of almond butter for a little boost.
- Spinach optional: I like sneaking in a handful of spinach for extra nutrients, but feel free to skip it if you're not in the mood for greens.
