Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 200 g lightly boiled spinach (or frozen spinach)
- 1 big avocado (skin and seed removed)
- 1.5 stick celery

- Add the water or any preferred liquid. Besides plain water, my top choices are coconut water or almond milk.

Smoothies are about being creative with food. That being said, note that you can easily skip some of the ingredients listed towards the bottom of the list, as all the “important” ingredients are usually listed at the top. Instead of water, you can definitely use coconut water, coconut milk, almond milk or cashew milk. Except for coconut water, all the other will add plenty of healthy fats to your smoothie and this will translate to an even creamier texture.
