Green Goddess Avocado Smoothie Bowls

Serves 2 · 12 min prep

Ingredients

• 1 large ripe avocado
• 1 large, sliced frozen banana
• 2 packed cups baby spinach
• 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/2–3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
• 1–2 Tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 1/2-inch piece, peeled fresh ginger
• 1 Tbsp, plus more for topping chia seeds
• 1/2 cup granola
• 1, peeled and sliced kiwi
• 1/2 cup fresh blueberries or raspberries
• 2 Tbsp toasted coconut flakes
• 1 Tbsp hemp hearts

Instructions

1. 1Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a high-speed blender. Add the frozen banana slices, spinach, Greek yogurt, almond milk, lime juice, honey, ginger, and chia seeds.
2. 2Blend on high 45–75 seconds, stopping to scrape down the sides once, until completely smooth, thick, and bright green. The texture should be spoonable like soft-serve—add almond milk at a time only if the blades stall.
3. 3Taste and adjust sweetness with a little more honey or brightness with an extra squeeze of lime. If the mixture is too loose for a bowl, freeze 10 minutes or blend in a few ice cubes.
4. 4Divide the smoothie between two chilled bowls, using the back of a spoon to create a shallow well and smooth surface for toppings.
5. 5Arrange kiwi slices, berries, and granola in neat rows or clusters on top. Sprinkle with toasted coconut, hemp hearts, and an extra pinch of chia seeds.
6. 6Serve immediately with a spoon while the base is still thick and cold; the contrast of creamy avocado blend and crunchy granola is best before it melts.
