Avocado Smoothie with Pistachio and Strawberries Recipe

Ingredients

Serves 2 | Always use organic ingredients when available.

  • 1 avocado
  • 2 – 3 cups cold almond milk (or other healthy milk)
  • 1/3 cup pistachios, in powder consistency (you can adjust this amount) (Use a VitaMix or coffee bean grinder)
  • handful of frozen organic strawberries or fresh strawberries
  • raw honey or other healthy sweetener, if almond milk is unsweetened

 Directions

  • Cut avocado in half.  Scoop out pulp and discard seed.
  • If using fresh strawberries, wash them thoroughly.
  • Put all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Adjust amount of almond milk according to the thickness you prefer.  I found 2 cups to be too thick and 3 cups has a more liquid consistency.
  • This smoothie is best when  cold. Add a few ice cubes, if needed.
