Avocado Banana Smoothie Ingredients:

  • Avocados are high in fiber, monosaturated fats, and rich in folates. Adding this ingredient to your weekly meals will add flavor and nutrients. 
  • Banana: It’s best to use frozen bananas as they add extra creaminess. To freeze your bananas, let them ripe, peel them, slice them into pieces, and add them to a freezer bag. Freeze overnight. 
  • Greens: I use mixed greens in this recipe, but you can use any greens of your choice. Such as spinach or kale. 
  • Water: Oftentimes, I make my smoothies with water vs non-dairy milk. I view it as a way to drink more water. It doesn’t taste watery as the frozen fruit makes the smoothie thick and creamy. 
  • Protein Powder: I use the Garden of Life organic protein powder. It’s grain-free, vegan, and gluten-free. 
  • Hemp Seeds:  This ingredient is optional but a must in all my smoothies. Hemp seeds are rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Both fats are known to improve heart health. 
  • Frozen Fruit: This is optional, but I usually add a variety of berries or tropical fruit. 

How to make this avocado smoothie recipe

Step 1: Add the banana, greens, avocado, fruit, protein powder, and water to the blender. 

Step 2: Blend on high until everything is combined and smooth. Pour into a glass and top with hemp seeds.

      You can substitute protein powder for any protein of your choice. Feel free to use nut milk, hemp hearts, chia seeds, or nut or seed butter.
