Ingredients

  • 1 avocado, pitted, peeled
  • 1 banana, sliced
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
  • 1/4 cup frozen organic apple juice concentrate
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup ice

Directions

  • 1
    In blender, place all ingredients except ice. Cover; blend on medium speed 10 seconds.
  • 2
    Add ice. Cover; blend on high speed 30 seconds or until smooth.
  • 3
    Divide mixture evenly among 4 glasses. Serve immediately.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Avocado will oxidize and turn brown quickly, so this smoothie is best when served immediately.
  • tip 2
    This smoothie is also a great base for other flavors. For a berry version, omit the banana and pineapple and blend in 1 cup of organic frozen harvest berries.
