Ingredients:

1 cup frozen blueberries
160g
1 banana
120g
1 avocado
140g
1 tbsp chia seeds
12g
3 cups soy milk
730g
1 tbsp dry cocoa powder
5g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- 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.
2. Blend Smoothie:
- In a high-powered blender, add the frozen blueberries, banana slices, chopped avocado, chia seeds, soy milk, and dry cocoa powder.
3. Blend until Smooth:
- 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.
4. Check Consistency:
- 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.
5. Serve Immediately:
- 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.
6. Enjoy!
- 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.

With its rich flavors and impressive health benefits, the Blueberry & Raw Cacao Smoothie is a perfect choice for a quick, nutritious, and satisfying meal. Not only is it easy to prepare, but it also incorporates wholesome ingredients that will keep you energized throughout the day.
