Description

I crave this superbly thick and creamy Avocado Smoothie with frozen blueberries, half an avocado, dates, and vanilla all year long. This banana-free blend packs nearly 8g plant protein and 11g fiber. A filling and flavorful breakfast made in the blender in 5 minutes! Dairy free.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
  • 2 soft pitted Medjool dates
  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • 1 tbsp hemp seeds
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 2 ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. I like to top with something crunch for texture, like cacao nibs or O's cereal, plus a drizzle of peanut butter!

Notes

For extra nutrition, you can add 1/4 cup frozen lose leaf spinach, 1 cup fresh spinach, and/or 1 scoop protein powder (use only 1 date if using protein powder.

You can also use frozen avocado and omit the ice!
