Blueberry Avocado Smoothie

August 15, 2016

Welcome to the week, friends! Let’s kick things off right with a super healthy, nutrient-dense, flavor-packed, colorful smoothie, shall we?

My three favorite ingredients of a smoothie are blueberries, bananas, and Greek yogurt. While I normally use a banana as a base, I know there are some allergies and aversions to bananas. This version of one of my all-time favorite combinations uses an avocado as the base instead. The result is a nice, smooth consistency. Plus, since avocados provide fiber, potassium, vitamin E, B-vitamins, and folic acid (not to mention the vitamin C and iron!), this smoothie is essentially a drinkable, nutritional powerhouse.

My Blueberry Avocado Smoothie is the perfect ending to a tough workout. It’s also equally delicious on a hot summer day on the patio. Plus, it’s perfect for those of you that don’t love bananas. 

Blueberries + avocado make this smoothie a drinkable, nutritional powerhouse! #MeatlessMonday
