Fruit & vegetables for juicing (Photo credit: blacknight)
Avocado is one of those fruits that I’ve never really known what to do with.
I’ve eaten it over the years in many forms, but I’d never actually prepared anything using it.
Since trying to “crank it up” a bit with the juices etc., I went off and bought a load of fruit and vegetables to try out a few different juice and smoothie combinations
One of the “new” additions for me was avocado.
This evening I used some in a salad and it was truly delicious.
So what’s so good about avocado?
Have a look at the nutrients in an avocado – it’s truly impressive:

I just put cut up fruit, and veggies in a blneder and add water and put it on blneder setting- it blends to a slurry- add some sugar, honey or other sweetener or nothing at all- I sometimes add some frozen yogurt to sweeten it and I get plenty of energy and feel greatMy recipe1/2 c lettuce and any other veggie that is healthy and low or no calorie1/2 c fruit any that is healthy and low or now calorie1/2 c frozen yogurt1/2 c water2-3 tbsp sugar, honey or whateverand you do not have to peel any fruit you usually eat the peel on like pears, nectarines, apples etc . better for you that way too because you get more nutrients that way
