Blending Smoothies
I recommend using a good-quality high speed blender for this recipe. I have a fantastic Vitamix blender, which I have been using for years, and it gets daily use in our home.
Choose a blender that has a lot of power, and can pulverize even the toughest of ingredients. My blender can chop ice, dates, frozen fruits, make soups, and even blend nuts into homemade nut butter. Using a good high-speed blender will make perfectly creamy smoothies and sauces every time!
Frozen Fruit Recipes For the Win!
I used frozen pineapple and banana in this smoothie instead of fresh. By using freezer ingredients, I can stock up when they are on sale, and use them in all kinds of great dishes. It saves me a trip to the store, and I can have frozen fruit to use in smoothies in no time.
Check out all my recipes that use Freezer Ingredients on The Herbeevore – great for those days when you want a meal ready fast!
How Do I Make A Green Smoothie with Avocado?
- Add all ingredients to a high speed blender.
- Blend on low, and increase speed until all fruit/ice chunks are blended and the smoothie is a creamy consistency.
- Pour into your favorite glass, sit back, and enjoy!
Dietary Modifications
- This recipe is vegan and gluten free – if you are adding a protein powder, make sure it keeps with any dietary modifications you require. I like a vegan and gluten free orange and ginger protein for this smoothie, if I’m adding a powder!
