This healthy green smoothie gets super creamy from the frozen banana and avocado. Make ahead (up to 1 day) and store it in the fridge until you need a veggie boost.

Why is there so much sugar in this? That's not healthy. Was going to make it but saw that.

Very good base and can change it up as you need. Mods I made: I added half of a small avocado and only used 1 tsp of (manuka) honey instead of 2 (probably make it next time with no honey. I also added in 1/4th cup of oats. Loved the avocado in the smoothie, made it really smooth. Thanks for the recipe!

I love this idea! Easy and simple which makes it perfect for mornings before work! I've only tried this once but plan on making it every morning soon.

I added ice instead of water and didn't add the honey to save calories and it still tasted great
