    This healthy and creamy strawberry avocado smoothie is thick enough to scoop; low in added sweeteners, NO bananas, easy to make!

    Scoop-able Strawberry Avocado Smoothie

    I am currently rotating my breakfasts between two options...

    ...smoothies and over-easy eggs with Ezekiel cinnamon raisin toast.

    Eggs and toast are typically reserved for days when I have a bit more time and can't fathom a cold smoothie on a cold day.

    Smoothies are truly my favorite way to begin a day, however. They start my digestion off right and give me the pizazz I need to get going.

    My go-to smoothie is a variation of this Choco-Berry delight, but when I'm seeking something cocoa-free, I reach for a fruit-based shake.

    Scoop-able Strawberry Avocado Smoothie

    I originally found a variation of this on Allrecipes.com and have since adapted it to my own allergies and tastes.

    The avocado keeps me full for a good while (not an easy task!), and the flavor reminds me a bit of a strawberry creamsicle.

    This one is also a hit with my girls, and it makes a great breakfast for them on days we're running a bit behind.

    Seven easy ingredients into the Vitamix, blend, drink (or rather, scoop), and go!

    Notes:

    Smoothie was made greener with the addition of spinach. Otherwise, it looks like this...

    This also makes great popsicles, if you're so inclined.

    Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding in a bit more honey or stevia.

    For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free yogurt or coconut milk. Make your own coconut milk with this recipe.

    For a lighter version, use 1/2 avocado instead of a whole one (cuts the calorie count to 460 and the fat content to 21.9 grams). It won't be as scoop-able though!

      This smoothie was amazing. I added flaxseed meal and vegan protein. This is definitely going to be one of my favs!

      This smoothie sounds so yummy! And I'm always looking for a smoothie to keep me fuller longer, sometimes they aren't always up to the job. The avocado would definitely help. And it's so pretty! Bonus =)

      My pickiest eater liked this smoothie! And I got to use up some kefir we don't love - we tried a new brand and it's more tangy than we like but it mixed wonderfully in this smoothie. I love how healthful and filling it is, a great breakfast that will stay with you a while.
