Avocado & Greens Banana Smoothie

This Avocado & Greens Banana Smoothie is a weight loss smoothie with spinach. It’s so yummy nutritious that it brings new meaning to “green smoothie.” The half banana gives it just enough natural sweetener to balance out the slight bitterness from the spinach and kale. The avocado makes it creamy smooth and over the top delicious! Vegan, gluten-free and great for WEIGHT LOSS!

Don’t you just LOVE avocados? I do. They’re creamy and full of the good fats your body needs. I like putting them in smoothies because they make the smoothie creamy.

Right about now, you’re thinking about spring and the fact that’ll you’ll have to put shorts on and even a bathing suit! I know I love my black swim skirt I put over my one-piece bathing suit and I still cringe sometimes looking at my legs.

I LOST 60 lbs and successfully kept it off for 12 years! Now that’s an accomplishment because I LOVE food as you can tell by looking at my blog photos.

But, fear not! You can make simple changes to your diet that can help you lose weight and get fit for summer! This Avocado Greens & Banana Weight Loss Smoothie is one simple way! Check out the nutrition label below.

Avocado & Greens Banana Smoothie

This Avocado & Greens Banana Smoothie recipe is made with:

• avocado (of course)
• spinach
• kale
• 1/2 banana
• unsweetened almond milk
• flax seeds (BEST SELLER on Amazon!)

I like it especially because it makes a great:

• on-the-go breakfast
• power snack before or after workout
• light lunch

Plus, you can add some protein powder to supplement the 7 grams of protein this smoothie naturally has.

I use my Calphalon Blender (pictured below) that I was given for FREE from the brand to make a Pumpkin Maple Pecan Smoothie Bowl recipe (sponsored content) for this blog! NOTE: This Avocado Greens & Banana Smoothie post is not sponsored content.

I love using using this blender because if you set it to “smoothie” function on the dial, it’ll start and stop automatically for just the right amount of time to get a smooth, smoothie!

But, if that price is steep for you, you can buy this Nutribullet BEST SELLER for half the price!

Get ready for summer now! It’s always good to have extra time for lulls in your weight-loss journey. I know how hard it is to lose weight and keep it off! I lost 60 lbs after all! So, I know a little something about losing weight!
