ULTRA-CREAMY AVOCADO SMOOTHIE



Ultra-Creamy Avocado Smoothie image

In many countries folks eat avocados for dessert, in custards and in shakes like this one. The riper the avocado, the sweeter the shake, so you'll want to adjust the sweetness to taste. If you have matcha (green tea powder) on hand, add some for a boost of antioxidants, nutrients and fiber.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 jasmine green tea bags
Kosher salt
Two 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small bite-size cubes
1/3 cup finely diced red onion
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablespoons fat-free plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarragon
1 1/2 teaspoons white balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons sliced natural almonds
8 slices fruit-n-nut or rye bread
1 cup packed mixed baby salad greens

Steps:

  • Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Turn off the heat, add the tea bags and let steep for 5 minutes.
  • Remove the tea bags and bring back to a rolling boil. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt and the chicken. Cover, reduce the heat to low and poach until fully cooked, about 7 minutes. Drain and transfer the chicken to a small bowl to cool to room temperature.
  • Stir together the onions, mayonnaise, yogurt, basil, tarragon, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Stir in the cooled chicken, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to combine.
