Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure 1 cup of almond milk.
- Gather 1 cup of frozen strawberries. If you are using fresh strawberries, wash and hull them before freezing or using directly.
- Measure 1 tablespoon of cashews.
- Slice open the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Ensure it amounts to approximately 200 grams.
- Measure 1 tablespoon of honey.
- In a high-speed blender, add the almond milk first. This will help with the blending process.
- Add the frozen strawberries on top of the almond milk.
- Toss in the cashews.
- Add the avocado flesh.
- Lastly, drizzle in the honey.
- Secure the lid on the blender and start blending on a low setting. Gradually increase to high speed.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, with no visible chunks of strawberries, cashews, or avocado. This should take about 1-2 minutes, depending on the strength of your blender.
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more almond milk a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, you can add a bit more honey to taste and blend again briefly.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses. This recipe should serve 1-2 people.
- Optionally, garnish with a slice of strawberry or a few cashews on top for presentation.
- Smoothies are best enjoyed fresh. Serve immediately while it’s cool and refreshing.
Tips:
- For a thicker consistency, you can add a few ice cubes before blending.
- If you prefer a sweeter taste, feel free to add extra honey or a ripe banana.
- Ensure your avocado is ripe for a smoother texture.
- To make it more protein-rich, you can add a scoop of your favorite protein powder.
- If you’re not a fan of almond milk, you can substitute it with any other plant-based milk like soy or coconut milk.
The strawberry, cashew, and avocado cream smoothie is a versatile and nutrient-rich option that can easily be tailored to your taste preferences. With its rich, creamy texture and refreshing flavor, this smoothie is sure to become a favorite in your recipe repertoire.
