Avocado smoothie recipe

hi everyone! so i'm back with another smoothie post.  Click HERE if you want to see my previous post for an apple kiwi cucumber smoothie recipe :) With summer in full swing, i've been enjoying fruit and green smoothies even more! There's nothing better drinking an ice cold smoothie on a hot summer's day :3  and the best part is that u know u are treating ur body well cuz the ingredients are suppperrr healthy!! :D  Since i've been making more of these drinks, i got a bit more creative and started trying out fruits that i would never imagine myself liking in the first place.  I've never been a huge fan of avocado, the only time i ever eat them is when they're jammed into my california roll lol.  But i was bored one day and decided to go read up on some of the nutritional facts about certain fruits *huge nerd* needless to say i found out all the good stuff they say about avocados, whether they are health or beauty benefits. and one thing led to another, i soon found myself at superstore shopping for avocados and condensed milk >:D  The recipe i have today is a slightly modified version of a traditional Vietnamese avocado smoothie.  ok let's talk no more, time to get started :D




INGREDIENTS:
1 ripe avocado
1/2 of a banana
2 table spoon condensed milk
1-1/4 cup of milk
5-6 ice cubes
a drizzle of honey
granola/cereal of your choice
Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado, then just throw the rest of the ingredients (except the cereal) into the blender and blend away until smooth~ omg doesn't it look so delicious already? :9

then sit back, relax and enjoy the creamy smooth goodness of this refreshing avocado smoothie!
To turn it into more of a breakfast food, simply add some cereal to top it off! i love that it adds some texture and crunch to it too! just like you would add to any yogurt to make it into something that is similar to a parfait :9 andddddddd that's it, it's honestly the easiest thing in the world to make~ go ahead and get urself some vitamins too! and please let me know in the comments below if you have a favorite smoothie recipe that u would wanna share <3! until next time my lovelies :3
