Instructions:
- Measure 1 cup of frozen blueberries.
- Peel and slice the banana.
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and roughly chop it.
- In a high-powered blender, add the frozen blueberries, banana slices, chopped avocado, chia seeds, soy milk, and dry cocoa powder.
- Start the blender on a low setting to combine the ingredients, then gradually increase to high speed. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a little more soy milk to reach your desired consistency. Blend again briefly to incorporate any additional liquid.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses. For an extra touch, you can garnish with a few whole blueberries, a sprinkle of cacao powder, or some additional chia seeds on top.
- Serve immediately while the smoothie is fresh and cold. Cheers to a delicious and nutritious treat!
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for added sweetness and a smoother texture.
- Opt for organic blueberries and avocados for the best flavor and nutritional value.
- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, reduce the amount of soy milk or add an extra tablespoon of chia seeds and let the mixture sit for a few minutes before blending.
- For an extra antioxidant boost, consider adding a handful of spinach or kale.
- Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding a natural sweetener, like a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
- Chill the smoothie in the refrigerator for a few minutes before serving if you like it extra cold.
