Creamy Avocado Berry Smoothie

High Fiber Berry Avocado Smoothie Recipe

Short on time in the morning or just not in the mood for a big breakfast?
This Creamy Avocado Berry Smoothie is a quick, refreshing way to enjoy a variety of plant foods in one delicious drink.
Avocado and frozen zucchini give this smoothie an incredibly creamy texture, while berries, banana, spinach, and almond butter add flavor and nutrition. With 12 grams of fiber per serving, it's a particularly delicious way to add more fiber to your day!
For an even faster morning routine, prep and freeze the zucchini and banana ahead of time. You can even make several smoothie packs at once, so all you have to do is add the ingredients to your blender, blend, and head out the door.
Depending on your overall goals and needs, you might consider rounding out this smoothie with your favorite protein booster. See our suggestions in the note section.

Notes

If you are making this a meal, we highly recommend adding a protein source such as the following:
  •  1 scoop protein powder (whey, pea, soy, etc.)
  •  Silken tofu
  • Fairlife milk or ultra-filtered milk instead of almond milk
  •  ¾–1 cup Greek yogurt
  •  ¾ cup cottage cheese (blends surprisingly smooth!)
Some of these additions might require slightly adjusting the liquid to achieve the right consistency.
Reminder: Nut butters are nutritious, but they aren’t a significant source of protein. One tablespoon typically provides only about 3–4 grams of protein while adding 90–100 calories.
