Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 avocado
- 1/2 banana (fresh or frozen)
- 1 large handful fresh spinach
- 1 cup milk of choice
- 1 handful ice
Optional Additions:
- 1 serving collagen peptides or vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon chia or hemp seeds
- 1 teaspoon bee pollen
- 1 date or honey to sweeten
Instructions
- Add milk to blender first, then spinach, avocado, banana, and ice.
- Blend until completely smooth, about 60 seconds.
- Pour and serve immediately.
Notes
- Fresh or frozen banana both work. Frozen banana makes the smoothie thicker and eliminates the need for ice.
- Use any milk you like. Oat, almond, dairy, or coconut all work well.
- Best served immediately. To make ahead, blend without ice, refrigerate in a sealed jar for up to 24 hours, and re-blend before serving.
