Ingredients
  

  • 1 large ripe avocado peeled and pitted
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or regular milk
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 medium banana frozen for best texture
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Method
 

  1. Add the avocado, almond milk, Greek yogurt, banana, honey, vanilla, and ice cubes to a high-speed blender.
  2. Blend on high for 60–90 seconds until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Scrape down the sides of the blender if needed and blend for an additional 15 seconds.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if desired.
  5. Pour evenly into two glasses and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use a frozen banana to make the smoothie extra thick and frosty without watering it down.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute the Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt or omit it entirely.
  • To make this a meal replacement, add a scoop of unflavored protein powder and 1 tablespoon of chia seeds.
  • This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh; it will start to brown slightly after 30 minutes due to oxidation (still safe to drink!).
