ULTRA-CREAMY AVOCADO SMOOTHIE
In many countries folks eat avocados for dessert, in custards and in shakes like this one. The riper the avocado, the sweeter the shake, so you'll want to adjust the sweetness to taste. If you have matcha (green tea powder) on hand, add some for a boost of antioxidants, nutrients and fiber.

AVOCADO KALE SUPERFOOD SMOOTHIE
In Julia Mueller's cookbook, Delicious Probiotic Drinks, this is just one of many good-for you drinks. This recipe calls for blueberry yogurt, which is one of many homemade yogurt recipes in the book, but even if you take a short cut and use a store bought blueberry Greek yogurt, it is just as fantastic. The avocado makes it especially creamy and high in omega-3 fatty acids.
