Description

This light and refreshing Kiwi, Avocado Green Smoothie is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory nutrients like spinach, kiwi, avocado and zucchini. The banana and kiwi give it some sweetness and the avocado makes it super creamy. And, to finish it off, feel free to top it with some crunchy granola and additional fruit slices.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 handfuls Spinach
  • 1 cup Zucchini (skin on), roughly chopped
  • 1/2 Avocado, pitted and scooped
  • 3 SunGold Kiwi or Green Kiwi, washed, scooped and roughly chopped
  • 1 medium Banana, frozen or thawed
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Water
  • Optional: 2 tsp - 1 tbsp Maple Syrup or Honey
  • Optional: Ice
  • Optional: 2 tbsp Badia Trilogy Health Seeds: Flax, Chia, Hemp
  • Topping add-ons: Granola, banana slices, kiwi slices

Instructions

  1. Blend: Add the veggies, fruit and coconut water to a blender and blend until nice and smooth.
  2. Check for sweetness: If the smoothie isn’t sweet enough, add your sweetener of choice and blend until just incorporated. Enjoy immediately. 
  3. NOTE: If you use thawed banana, you’ll need to add some ice to thicken the smoothie and make it cold. (Start with a small handful; about 5-7 big pieces). 
  4. Optional: Add the trilogy seeds and blend until just incorporated.

Equipment

Notes

  • If possible, use all organic ingredients.
  • Servings: Makes one large glass, or two smaller glasses.
  • Banana: If using frozen, no ice is needed. (Wait until the last minute to pull the banana out of the freezer. If it’s out on the counter for too long it will defrost and become soft).
  • Ice: If using ice, don’t add too much or it will water the smoothie down. *I only use ice if I don’t have frozen banana on hand.
  • Sweetener: If the smoothie isn’t sweet enough you can add some honey to balance out the flavors. And to make it vegan, use maple syrup instead.
  • Trilogy Seeds: If using, be sure to add some more coconut water to thin it out, because the smoothie will get much thicker.
