It’s good to ring the changes in our smoothies. Mostly we want creamy results and we can get this from using either a banana or an avocado. Both are rich in potassium, but 100g, which is about 2/3 cup, of sliced avocado has 2g protein which is twice as much as the same amount of banana. So when you want a higher protein content this is your better option.
However, it’s the yogurt and milk in this recipe that make it a high-protein smoothie.
It’s always good to find a smoothie recipe that will keep, for a little while at least. This tasty recipe from CaliforniaAvocado tells us that this recipe …
Holds well in the refrigerator up to 24 hours. If made ahead, stir gently before pouring into glasses.
So if you want a smoothie you can snack on over the day, then this is it.
