GREEN AVOCADO SMOOTHIE
PREP TIME: 5 MINUTES ★ SERVINGS: 1
This glass of delight has avocado for added richness. Avocado is technically a fruit—one that contains heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, which can lower cholesterol levels.
1/2 avocado, halved and pitted
1/2 cup well-packed baby kale
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup crushed ice
2 tablespoons of your favorite granulated sweetener such as swerve or monk fruit in the raw
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
TIP: Blend smoothies for at least 5 minutes. This pumps up the recipe with extra air, which will make you feel full.
