Adding avocados to a smoothie is a great way to add some healthy fat and protein. It’s also a great way to make a green shake for St. Patrick’s day. The Avocado Pineapple Smoothie recipe is simple, portable, and a healthy alternative to the dairy present in other smoothies. One slice of avocado contains one gram of fiber, which helps kids to feel satiated and maintain a healthy weight. It is literally two ingredients and is a fantastic way for kids to power up with a healthy treat in the morning! Plus I just LOVE Avocados.

I don’t believe that I’ve ever tried anything with avocado in it, but this recipe sounds really good. I just started getting into making smoothies. So, I’ll definitely have to try out this recipe sometime!
fresh pineapple is much better
