A wholesome, full-of-good-fats, restorative smoothie so delightfully creamy it doesn’t even taste healthy.
If you feel you need some healthy, heart starting goodness after the debauchery of Christmas and New Years, this is just the thing.
Recipe:
1 cold, ripe, medium sized avocado, peeled and diced
2 x 15ml tblspns almond meal or LSA (ground linseed, sunflower seeds and almonds)
1 decent sized banana, sliced
400mls chilled organic almond, oat or rice milk
20mls agave nectar (or to taste)
Puree ingredients in blender until blended and almonds are ground.
Serves: 2
Hi Emma-I have never made avocado smoothie…with the raw almonds, and bananas, I can only imagine how yummy it is. I use organic blue agave nectar to sweeten things, and the almond milk really is a great choice!
Have a wonderful week, Emma…thanks for your support and encouragement:DDD
Hugs,
I’m intrigued by the adition of avocado, I’ve never thought that it could taste good in a smoothie but it looks pretty good and it is never too late to try new things
I love the creaminess of avocado in my breakfast! Thanks for sharing!
I’ve had avocado in smoothies before and I can see how these ingredients will work very well!
I love avocado to replace creaminess. Please just do not know what they are missing.
I make a version of this with 3 bananas, one avocado, a handful of almonds and 150ml of semi skimmed milk – really sweet and keeps me going for hours
Wow!!!!!!i just made this for lunch and it was fantastic. Thanks so much for the recipe.
Thanks for letting me know Anndee, glad you enjoyed it 🙂
I had an almost bad avacado, and was looking at 100 ways to use an avacado, where I chose this splendid recipe! Just made it for breakfast this morning and it was so amazingly delicious!! With some exceptions I added bavarian yogurt, cherry juice, honey instead of agave, and regular milk replacing almond milk. I have never tried using avacado or nuts in a smoothie before, but the result is awesome (: Not too sweet, just a nice mellow flavor where all of the ingredients really compliment each other. Thank you so much my tongue and tummy are very satisfied.
