This smoothie is packed with antioxidants and healthy fats and it promotes glowing skin.

Did you know?

  • Avocados are considered fruit. 

  • Avocados are in the same family as cinnamon. 

  • Avocados’ creamy consistency makes them one of the first fresh foods a baby can eat.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Almondmilk (or any plant milk)

  • 1 cup fresh spinach

  • 1 ripe banana

  • 1/2 ripe avocado

  • 2 cups frozen blueberries

  • 1 Handful of Almonds or Almond Butter (1 teaspoon)

  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Optional: 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed meal. Why flaxseed you ask? Flaxseeds add beneficial fiber and omega-3 fatty acids to smoothies. They also act as a thickening agent in smoothies.

Blend plant-based milk and spinach leaves, avocado, banana, blueberries, flaxseed, and almonds or almond butter in a blender until smooth. If you'd like a thicker smoothie, add a small handful of ice. Enjoy immediately.

Fun Fact:

California produces 90% of the U.S. avocado crop. San Diego County is the star of avocado production in California, which produces 40% of all Californian-grown avocados.
