Ingredients
2 oz. (1/4 cup) of full fat coconut milk (the kind that comes in a can)
Zest and juice of 1 medium lime (organic if possible)
2 large ripe bananas
2 large medjool dates, pitted
1 large ripe avocado
2 cups of fresh spinach, packed
1/8 teaspoon of fine sea salt
Makes 3 bowls
Instructions
1. First, add the liquids to the blender container: ¼ cup of full fat coconut milk and the zest & juice of 1 medium lime. You can easily zest and juice your own lime by zesting the lime first on a microplane and then cutting it in half and squeezing out all of the juice, fishing out any seeds. Follow this by adding the sweeteners: 2 large ripe bananas and 2 large pitted medjool dates.
2. Next add the base: 1 large ripe avocado and 2 packed cups of fresh spinach. Last, but not least, is 1/8 teaspoon of fine sea salt. Adding salt to your smoothie bowl will help marry all the lovely flavors together.
3. Secure the lid on the blender container and blend until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary or by using the tamper if you have a Vitamix. This may take up to a minute or more, depending on what type of blender you use.
4. Scoop the bright green, creamy mixture, which will be the consistency of loose pudding, into two or three bowls and top with pineapple chunks and coconut flakes. Enjoy as a delicious healthy breakfast or nutrient dense snack!
