Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel and slice the bananas.

- If using fresh raspberries, ensure they are washed and clean.
- Add the sliced bananas and avocado flesh into a blender.
3. Add the Raspberries:
- Pour in the 1/2 cup of raspberries to the blender with the banana and avocado.
- Pour the 2 cups of almond milk into the blender over the fruits.
- Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of dry cocoa powder into the blender.
6. Add the Eggs:
- Carefully crack the 4 eggs into the blender.
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend the mixture on high speed until the texture is smooth and creamy, making sure there are no lumps remaining. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Give it a taste and adjust as desired; if you feel it needs sweetness, you might add a sweetener of your choice like honey or maple syrup, depending on your preference.
- Pour the smoothie into serving glasses.
- For an extra touch, you can garnish the smoothie with a few fresh raspberries, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or even a few slices of banana.
- Serve and enjoy your delicious, nutrient-packed chocolate avocado smoothie!
Tips:
- For added sweetness, consider using ripe bananas; the riper they are, the sweeter your smoothie will be.
- If you prefer a thicker consistency, you can use frozen bananas or add some ice cubes.
- To enhance the chocolate flavor, you can add a splash of vanilla extract.
- For a protein boost, consider adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder.
- If you have a nut allergy, you can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk, such as coconut or oat milk.
- Blend the ingredients thoroughly to achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
