Fruits
- 1 avocado, peeled and pitted
- 2 kiwi, peeled

- 1 banana, peeled
Vegetables
- 1 1/2 cups lightly packed fresh baby spinach
Dairy
- 1 cup plain low fat Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all fresh and frozen ingredients. Peel the avocado, kiwi, and banana, and lightly pack fresh baby spinach.
- Blend Smoothie: Place the avocado, kiwi, spinach, frozen pineapple chunks, banana, Greek yogurt, and milk into the pitcher of a high-powered blender. Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy with no lumps.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie evenly into 2 large 8-ounce glasses or 4 smaller 4-ounce glasses. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and optimal texture.
Notes
- Use frozen pineapple chunks to give the smoothie a chilled consistency without diluting the flavor.
- Adjust the milk quantity if you prefer a thinner or thicker smoothie.
- For added sweetness, you can add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup, though the ripe banana usually provides enough natural sweetness.
- To make this smoothie vegan, substitute Greek yogurt and milk with plant-based alternatives such as almond or oat milk and dairy-free yogurt.
- This smoothie is best consumed immediately to preserve the fresh flavor and prevent oxidation of avocado and banana.
