Smoothie Ingredients
- 1/4 ripe avocado
- 2 medium ripe bananas, previously sliced and frozen
- 1 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries
- 2 large handfuls spinach, organic when possible
- 1 small handful kale, organic when possible, large stems removed
- 1 1/2 – 2 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 1 Tbsp flaxseed meal

Toppings

Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add all the smoothie ingredients—avocado, frozen bananas, mixed berries, spinach, kale, non-dairy milk, flaxseed meal, and almond or peanut butter if using—into a blender.
- Blend: Blend until the mixture is creamy and smooth. If the smoothie is too thick, add more almond milk or water to reach desired consistency.
- Adjust Flavor: Taste the smoothie and adjust the flavor as needed by adding more ripe banana or maple syrup for sweetness, more spinach for a greener color, or additional almond milk for creaminess.
- Choose Berry Variation: Use strawberries to maintain a vibrant green color or darker berries like raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries for a purple hue.
- Add Protein: For extra protein, add nut butter which also enhances the natural sweetness of the smoothie.
- Serve: Divide the smoothie evenly between two serving bowls.
- Top: Add your favorite toppings such as roasted sunflower seeds, granola, nuts, shredded coconut, fresh berries, and hemp seeds to each bowl.
- Store Leftovers: Enjoy the bowls fresh for the best taste, but leftovers can be stored in jars in the fridge for 1 to 2 days.
Notes
- Use organic greens when possible for the freshest and healthiest option.
- Frozen bananas add natural sweetness and creaminess without extra sugar.
- Adjust the amount of non-dairy milk to achieve your preferred thickness.
- The nut butter is optional but highly recommended for added protein and flavor complexity.
- This smoothie bowl is best consumed immediately but can be refrigerated for up to two days.
- Feel free to customize toppings to your preference for texture and nutrition.
