Banana Avocado Breakfast Smoothie

DH and I love Guacamole, so I keep buying Avocado in bulk. Once I came across this recipe on webmd, I wasn't sure how it would turn up. But I thought if I don't like it, am just gonna discard and not try again right? So one morning I tried this smoothie. And when I say I fell in love with it, I am not exaggerating! It was so smooth and creamy, full of flavor.


It's loaded with Potassium, Dietary Fiber, Vitamins C, B6, E, Manganese, Magnesium, folic acid, and last but not least high in Omega-3 Fatty Acids. So what not to love about this! It's so filling that I don't get hungry for next 3 -4 hours. Kids loved the creamy flavor too. So now it’s a regular in my house.

Prep Time: 5 min. | Serves: 1

Ingredients:
Banana - 1 large
Avocado - 1
Cold Skimmed Milk - 1 cup
Milled Flaxseed - 1 tbsp. (optional)
Honey - 1 tbsp. (Or Sugar)


Method of Preparation:
~ Cut Avocado in half, discard the seed, scoop out the flesh into blender.
~ Add all other ingredients and blend until all combined.
~ Serve this cool smoothie immediately in tall glasses.

Sending this to Bon Vivant - Breakfast Ideas happening at my place.
