Avocado Pit Smoothie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe avocado
• 1 avocado pit
• 1 banana (fresh or frozen)
• 1 cup spinach (fresh or frozen)
• 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• A handful of ice cubes (optional, for a chilled smoothie)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Avocado Pit:
   • Carefully rinse the avocado pit under cold water to remove any residue.
   • Pat it dry with a paper towel.
   • Using a sharp knife, gently cut the pit into smaller pieces. This will make it easier to blend.
2. Blend the Ingredients:
   • Place the avocado pit pieces, avocado flesh, banana, and spinach in a blender.
   • Add the almond milk and blend until smooth. If you like a chilled smoothie, add a handful of ice cubes before blending.
   • Taste the smoothie. If you prefer it sweeter, add honey or maple syrup and blend again.
3. Serve:
   • Pour the smoothie into glasses.
   • Optionally, garnish with a few spinach leaves or a slice of avocado.
4. Enjoy:
   • Sip and enjoy the nutrient-packed benefits of your smoothie!

Notes:

• Avocado pits can be quite hard, so make sure your blender is powerful enough to handle them or consider grating the pit before adding it to the blender.
• Avocado pits have a slightly nutty flavor, so they might add a unique taste to your smoothie.

This smoothie is a great way to incorporate avocado pits into your diet and enjoy their nutritional benefits!
