Low Sugar Smoothie (v+gf+...)

Love me a low sugar smoothie, this recipe is super fast and to be honest my fave breakfast option these days and not just because it’s super yummy. No, it’s also super good for your health. This smoothie is PERFECT for you if you like me, don’t like any bananas.

Random Fact about me: My absolute pet peeve is bananas. I don’t like anything bananas, never have, probably never will, which makes the smoothie game kinda hard because a lot of people use frozen bananas as their base. So I had to come up with something else. And I did.

I USE HALF A FORZEN AVOCADO

Benefits of this avocado smoothie:

-       No overpowering taste

-       Low glycemic index – low sugar (aka so much better for you if want to reduce your sugar intake bc of hormonal imbalances)

-       All the healthy fats

-       Maca also helps to balance your hormones

-       Maca also helps to clear your skin and so much more related to hormones

-       Coconut water is so hydrating which is so important to flush out all of those toxins and prevent water retention

-       Cinnamon is good for your digestion

Obviously, you don’t necessarily have to freeze your avocados but when you do make sure to remove the skin and pit before you do. Otherwise you would have to wait for it to defrost again for you to remove it, which kind of defeats the whole process.

So without further ado, here’s the recipe. Literally takes less than 5 mins to make:

INGREDIENTS:

½ avocado

1 tsp maca powder

1 tsp dehydrated coconut water

1 tbsp vanilla protein

2 cups of water

METHOD:

Blend all of the ingredients together, sprinkle some cacao nibs on top and enjoy!

SIDE NOTE:

-       For extra froth, I sometimes at a dash of oat milk (oatly barista)

-       For more cleanse & detox, I sometimes at a tsp of Hawaiian spirulina powder
