I should say that avocado is good for you, but I am sure you all probably know about it. An avocado is a perfect option for the creamy base on smoothie ingredient as yogurt or banana alternative. I find it that using avocado make the smoothie more creamy and smooth better than using banana. The flavor also won’t be overpowering other ingredients, unlike banana.

Direction:

For this recipe, I use orange juice for the liquid base. I find it the sweet and sour taste on orange juice pairs well with the avocado taste. You can also use coconut water if you prefer. Using fresh squeezed orange juice tastes better than package one. But if it is not available, then package one is the best option and quick to prepare too for sure.
