### Almond Banana Avocado Smoothie

 

#### Ingredients:

– **1/2 ripe avocado**: Adds creaminess and healthy fats to the smoothie.

– **1 ripe banana**: Provides natural sweetness and a smooth texture.

– **1 cup almond milk**: A light, nutty base; feel free to use unsweetened or flavored almond milk depending on your preference.

– **1 tablespoon honey** (optional): Adds a touch of sweetness; omit if you prefer a less sweet smoothie.

– **Ice cubes** (optional): For a chilled and refreshing smoothie, add a handful of ice cubes.

 

#### Instructions:

 

1. **Prepare the Ingredients**:

– Peel and slice the banana.

– Scoop out the flesh of the avocado.

 

2. **Blend**:

– In a blender, combine the avocado, banana, and almond milk.

– If you want a sweeter smoothie, add the honey.

– For a thicker and colder smoothie, add a few ice cubes.

 

3. **Blend Until Smooth**:

– Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.

 

4. **Serve**:

– Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately. For an extra touch, you can garnish with a slice of banana or a sprinkle of almond slices on top.

 

### Tips:

– **Boost of Protein**: Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder or a tablespoon of almond butter for extra protein.

– **Green Twist**: Toss in a handful of spinach or kale for added nutrients without altering the taste much.

– **Superfood Addition**: A tablespoon of chia seeds, flax seeds, or a sprinkle of cinnamon can be great additions to enhance the nutritional value.

 

This smoothie is perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even as a post-workout recovery drink!
