I love this Smoothie from Daily Bites
This low-glycemic smoothie is free of sweet fruits but packed with healthy fats. Don't expect it to be sweet—it's not. But the almond butter and avocado add delicious creaminess that you'll become addicted to over time! If you do wish for a sweeter smoothie, add pure liquid stevia to taste.
Ingredients
1 (4-inch) chunk of cucumber (I prefer to peel mine)
4-5 ice cubes
1/4 - 1/2 ripe avocado
1 tablespoon unsweetened almond butter, sunflower seed butter, or coconut butter
1 tablespoon hemp seeds
1 (1/2 to 1-inch) chunk fresh ginger root (peeled)
1/2 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup spinach or other greens
2/3 cup water or unsweetened almond or hemp milk (more if needed)
Instructions
Place all of the ingredients in a blender in the order listed. (I use a Vita Mix.) Blend on high until creamy and smooth. (Add more water/milk if needed to reach the desired thickness.)
Enjoy immediately.
