AVOCADO BANANA BERRY SMOOTHIE
You can throw just about anything in a fruit smoothie to enhance its flavor such as honey, tofu, jams, any combination of fruits, peanut butter, juices, etc., but keep in mind it will effect the nutritional values.
Half a ripe avocado 1 to 1 1/2 frozen bananas 4 to 5 frozen or fresh strawberries
Splash non-fat soy or other nut milk Pinch cardamom Pinch allspice
Whatever else strikes your fancy. . . Nuts, fruits, spices, etc throw all ingredients into a blender and blend until desired texture is reached.
I prefer it smooth, but some like a chewable drink. Very, very delicious! Serves: 1.
One Avocado delivers a whooping 11 grams of fiber. 1/4 avocado = 4 grams
