Avocado/coconut smoothies

monih10

Do you have any good recipes....and what do YOU think about them? I have found a couple of recipes online...but wanted to see what others thought of the two together. I have had avocado/coconut icecream before...it was different....but it was pretty good!!

Sounds great

I do full fat coconut milk protein shakes when I'm really short on cals. I think they are really good. I'll add strawberries or unsweetened cocoa powder with vanilla protein. I've never done avocado, but I've thought about it. I think it would be really good because avocado is surprisingly complimentary to sweet flavors. Together, I think they would be great. Though, you may want to add some vanilla extract or something if the flavor is too neutral.

My old roommate and I would make avocado smoothies.

1 cup ice
1 cup almond milk (regular or vanilla)
1-2 avocados
1-2 tablespoons sugar/honey/agave nectar

Now that sounds interesting! I bet you could sub the almond milk for coconut Although, I'm obsessed with almond milk...

That sounds like a great combination. I have some frozen coconut and need to try to thaw it out and add it to my smoothie. Avocado makes them soooo smooth and creamy!

Oh gosh what a brilliant idea!

I'd do 1/2 cup coconut cream and 1/2 an avavado, and throw in some ice and blend it in the blender...I'd throw in some coconut oil as well, myself. Imagine the deliciousness!
