The other day I went to Costco and while I was there I made my rounds and sampled everything. Because, who doesn’t do that? If I could insert an emoji right here, I’d say Costco samples get the two hands up in the air emoji. Anyways, they were featuring this new high tech blender that looked pretty cool but what they were making inside the blender looked far more exciting to me. It was an avocado, spinach, mint chocolate chip smoothie. I know, at first you’re like huh? Avocado and chocolate? But then when you try it you’re like, “Ooooooo, this is good.” It was so good I kept telling Dave all about it and finally made my own version of it at home. If you like mint chocolate chip smoothies, this is your new go-to healthy version.
Here’s the recipe:
- 1/2 of an avocado
- 1/2 a frozen banana
- 3 big handfuls of spinach
- 1 cup almond milk (or to desired thickness)
- A big handful of chocolate chips, and maybe a few more ;)
- 1/4 cup of fresh mint
- Ice
- Mix it all up in a blender and enjoy.
