This vibrant, smooth, and delightful drink combines the goodness of ripe avocados and fresh blueberries. Not only is it easy to make, but it also serves as an excellent option for breakfast, a snack, or a post-workout refresher. With healthy fats from the avocado and antioxidants from the blueberries, this smoothie is a tasty way to boost your energy and nourishment.
Ingredients:
1 ripe avocado, peeled and pitted
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or non-dairy yogurt for a vegan version)
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any preferred milk)
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of salt (to enhance flavors)
Ice cubes (optional, for a colder, thicker texture)
Directions:
Prepare the Ingredients: Start by cutting the avocado in half, removing the pit, and scooping out the flesh. Measure out your blueberries, whether fresh or frozen, and gather the other ingredients.
Blend the Smoothie: In a blender, combine the avocado, blueberries, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Blend Until Smooth: Start blending on low and gradually increase the speed. Blend until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth and creamy. If you prefer a thicker texture, you can add more avocado or a few ice cubes.
Taste and Adjust: Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup if necessary. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy right away!
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving Suggestions: Serve this smoothie immediately after making it for the best taste and texture. You can also garnish it with a few extra blueberries or a sprinkle of chia seeds for added texture and nutrition.
Storage: If you have leftover smoothie, store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. However, it's best enjoyed fresh for the creamiest texture and flavor.
