HOW TO MAKE AVOCADO BLUEBERRY SMOOTHIE

A healthy, low carb Avocado Blueberry Smoothie, made excessive in protein with a healthy fat for endurance. This delicious inexperienced blueberry smoothie is the proper breakfast or snack.

BLUEBERRY SPINACH SMOOTHIE WITH AVOCADO

This smoothie is power-packed with every little thing that you must begin your day without work on the precise tone.

It’s not a sugary-sweet dessert smoothie, like my Dreamy Mint Chocolate Chip Smoothie. There is a time and place for dessert-like smoothies, even at breakfast. There’s also a time for a critical smoothie, like this Avocado Blueberry Smoothie.

Avocado, spinach, and blueberries are all nutrient-packed superfoods, and mixed right into a creamy smoothie make breakfast magic.

This will not be a really candy smoothie. To maintain it decrease in carbs, I neglected banana, which I almost at all times add to my smoothies. It’s creamy from the almond milk and non-compulsory whey protein, and the proper method to energy up earlier than an exercise or if you recognize you want a bit of further to make all of it the best way to lunch.

INGREDIENTS IN AN AVOCADO BLUEBERRY SMOOTHIE

• Frozen blueberries
• Avocado
• Spinach – only a handful to maintain this from being too thick!
• Almond Milk
• Whey protein (I really like this model as a result of it offers smoothies the most effective mild and creamy texture).
• Yogurt – use what you're keen on. I usually purchase full fats natural yogurt. Use Greek yogurt to up the protein much more.
• Unsweetened Coconut – I really like the feel this provides however it’s non-compulsory in the event you don’t love coconut!

HOW TO MAKE A BLUEBERRY SMOOTHIE

1. Either purchase frozen blueberries or freeze your blueberries prior to creating this smoothie. Frozen blueberries are literally sweeter than recent! It’s additionally okay to freeze avocado halves which can be about to go dangerous and use them up for smoothies! Fresh or frozen avocado is okay right here.
2. Add all components to a blender, and course of till thick and creamy. I like my smoothies very thick, however, if you choose thinner, add extra almond milk or much less ice.
3. Taste, and regulate by including sweetener or further milk.

MIX UP YOUR TYPICAL MORNING SMOOTHIE

Smoothies could be a very wholesome breakfast, or a calorie and sugar bomb. Choosing so as to add veggies and wholesome fat, like spinach and avocados, helps bulk up your smoothie without including the sugar of a number of servings of fruit.

Make your smoothie even more healthy through the use of almond milk as an alternative of a juice, which solely provides extra sugar. Most of the time, you’ll discover you don’t want the additional sweetness anyway.

Other wholesome additions to a blueberry smoothie:

• Instead of including avocado, attempt including a tablespoon or two of cashew or almond butter.
• Instead of spinach, attempt some shredded kale, or chopped cauliflower or zucchini. Cauliflower and zucchini are nice additions to smoothies for youths as a result of they don’t add any taste or coloration so are largely undetected! I'd use about a half a cup of both veggies rather than the spinach on this recipe.
• Add a tropical twist and a bit of extra candy by including half a frozen banana or half cup frozen mango.
