SMOOTHIE
- 1 large frozen banana (ripe, peeled, sliced)
- 1/4 – 1/2 medium ripe avocado
- 1 scoop plain or vanilla protein powder
- 1 large handful greens of choice (spinach, kale, rainbow chard)
- 3/4 – 1 cup unsweetened plain almond milk (or any dairy-free milk)
Optional
- 1 Tbsp seed of choice (hemp, flax, sesame, sunflower, chia, etc.)
- 1/2 tsp adaptogen of choice (maca, ashwagandha, etc.)
- 1/2 cup sliced frozen (or fresh) cucumber or berries (organic when possible)
Instructions
- To a high-speed blender, add frozen banana, avocado, protein powder, greens, and dairy-free milk. Add any desired add-ins, such as adaptogens, seeds, or additional fruits and vegetables. Blend on high until creamy and smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
- If smoothie is too thick, add more dairy-free milk to thin. If too thin, add more frozen banana or avocado.
- Taste and adjust flavor, adding more banana for sweetness, avocado for creaminess, or greens for vibrant color. Protein powder can also be used for more sweetness.
- Divide between serving glasses and enjoy! Best when fresh, leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator up to 24 hours or in the freezer up to 2 weeks.
