AVOCADO - BANANA SHAKE



Avocado - Banana Shake image

My friend made this for me, I thought an avocado shake sounded pretty weird, but it is yummy - it has an amazing texture and is not too sweet. Also it is a lovely shade of green! Note: if you slice and freeze the banana first, you will have a colder and thicker shake. I prefer mine less cold, but I believe I am in the minority on that.

Time 5m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 avocado
1 banana (not too ripe or it overpowers the avocado)
1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1 cup low-fat vanilla soymilk (try "vita-soy" or "so good")
water or soymilk, to taste

Steps:

  • Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and squeeze each half into the blender (faster than scooping it out!).
  • Add banana, yogurt, and 1 cup of soy milk.
  • Blend on medium or high.
  • If it is too thick (it probably will be) you can add water or ice, or more soy milk if you'd prefer a slightly sweeter drink.
  • Drink within 1/2 hour of blending, or the shake will discolor slightly (flavor will remain the same, it just looks less good.).
