Description

A refreshing and nutritious smoothie that blends the sweetness of ripe bananas with creamy avocado and fresh spinach.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by peeling the ripe banana and the ripe avocado. Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon.
  2. In a blender, combine the banana, fresh spinach, avocado, and almond milk. Blend these ingredients until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
  3. If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add honey or maple syrup to the blender. This step is optional.
  4. For a refreshing chilled smoothie, add ice cubes to the blender and blend again until the ice is fully incorporated. Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy!

Notes

For the creamiest smoothie, ensure your avocado is perfectly ripe. Frozen banana or spinach can be used for a thicker texture.
