I recently started the Paleo Diet.
As someone who has a full fledged addiction to carbs, dairy and sugar, this has been a challenge to say the least.
Having a smoothie for breakfast has been the norm lately, but I really found myself missing the milk or cream I would add to make it silky and smooth.
So this morning I just happened to spot an aging avocado on my counter and thought… why not? Of course, once I finished my smoothie and google “blueberry avocado smoothie” I realized I was the last person in the world to figure this out.
Whoops, my bad. (Say that in your best “Clueless” voice)
But, after some further inspection, I think the jumbled mass of ingredients I assembled is in fact not something I have seen on the internet before.

- 1 c frozen blueberries
- 1/2 avocado
- 1/4 c kale
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1/2 c freshly squeezed orange juice
- 2 -3 cups water
-
Place all ingredients in blender or juicer and mix for 30 seconds-1 minute. (I have a blender so I needed to mix a bit longer.)
-
Serve immediately.
Love that you can see little green flecks of veggie in there!
This smoothie achieved everything I had hoped it would. A thick yet smooth consistency, an abundance of healthy ingredients, and a satisfying great flavor.
I just might make it one more day without cake. 🙂
I may actually have to try this one!
Hope you like it!
I’ve been interested in trying the Paleo diet! I think I could definitely handle it with smoothies like these!
I am only on day 6… so have not really SEEN any results… but I can testify that the swelling I was experiencing from my pregnancy has dramatically reduced! 🙂
This sounds like the most perfect breakfast smoothie. Healthy and delicious?! So in.
This sounds super delicious!! 🙂
Love everything in the smoothie, healthy and delicious!
Oh that’s awesome to hear! And you are off to a great start already it looks. 🙂
Looks pretty great!
Sometimes the best recipes are the accidentally created ones! I have two friends on the paleo diet, so I may succumb to peer pressure … but the good kind, especially with smoothies like these. I always feel tired at around 10 or 11, and I think it’s because I always have toast or a bagel for breakfast.
Avocado……….. <3
Delicious! Going to make sure we link to you on our blog in the near future 🙂
I love this recipe, would like to try it out but may I know the 1/2 kale refers to freshly kale leave or? Pls advise, thanks a lot.
