I hadn’t used avocado in a smoothie until recently and I’m glad I tried it because it makes the texture smooth and creamy. I will definitely be using avocado in more recipes.
I used a pitted date to sweeten this smoothie a little bit, but feel free to add maple syrup or another sweetener if you’d like. You could also make it without this.
Ingredients
- 1 banana
- A handful of spinach
- ½ of an avocado
- 1 pitted date or a little bit of maple syrup
- A scoop of protein powder (optional)
- ½ cup almond milk
- About 5 ice cubes
Directions
- Blend all the ingredients together.
- Pour into a glass and top with anything you’d like (I used hemp seeds).
