\"Avocado<\/a><\/p>\n

I am obsessed with smoothies, and I don’t care who knows it. Smoothies are so easy and so delicious and always feel like a treat when really they’re just a bunch of fruits and veggies in something that resembles a milkshake.<\/p>\n

This smoothie is easy and smoothie and sweet. I made it with a frozen avocado that I froze and had forgotten I had frozen. Then, Jeff told me there was an avocado in the freezer, which I refuted, stating you cannot freeze avocados. Except obviously I had read this article<\/a>\u00a0and immediately frozen an extra half of avocado. Sorry, Jeff! I was wrong. Put it on my “I bet you $10” tip (I probably owe him hundreds of dollars. I think I’m right always. I’m not.)<\/p>\n

\"Avocado<\/a><\/p>\n

ANYWAYS so these smoothie is a half of an avocado, an entire orange, three dates, a fistful of spinach, and some milk for balance. I also grated ginger in there until you could just taste it under the sweetness of the dates. Here’s a Pro Tip: keep a ginger root in your freezer and grate the frozen ginger directly into your blender. It keeps a long time in the freezer and it’s good to always have on hand.<\/p>\n

Want your smoothie more\u00a0earthy? Use kale instead of spinach, or add more of either. Like sweet ones? Add one or two more dates, and you’ll be good to go – those suckers are SWEET.<\/p>\n
