1 to 2 servings (+ or - depending on your appetite and/or size of the bowls used)
Ingredients
- ½ cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup (or maple syrup)
- ½ teaspoon GANDALF spirulina
- ½ fresh, ripe avocado
- 2 limes (zest and juice)
Toppings
- Homemade or store-bought granola
- Fresh fruit to taste
- Optional: edible flowers
Preparation
- Prepare the suggested toppings or those of your choice!
- In blender, add all ingredients in order and blend until smooth.
- Don't hesitate to stop the blender to scrape down the sides and push the food towards the blades. Add more liquid, 1 tbsp (15 ml) at a time, if the blender seems to be having difficulty grinding the mixture. It's easier to add more as needed than to end up with a smoothie that's too runny to eat out of a bowl!
- Taste and adjust the flavors before pouring the smoothie into your bowls.
- Add toppings and serve.
Notes
If your blender has difficulty crushing some of the more solid foods, take out your frozen fruit about ten minutes before making your smoothie. This way, they'll be easier to blend, while still being frozen to ensure a consistent texture that will allow you to eat your smoothie out of a bowl. When using pigmented foods such as spirulina, clean the blender container immediately after use to avoid staining.
