Green Scene: Avocado, Mango And Lime Smoothie
Bloggers and vegetarian recipe developers David Frenkiel and Luise Vindahl of the highly acclaimed Green Kitchen Stories have a new cookbook out. Get inspired to eat (and drink) your fruits and veggies with renewed enthusiasm!
Avocados feature in several of the smoothies in our book as they create a silky smooth and creamy texture without the need for bananas or dairy products. However, in this creamy smoothie, avocado is no mere accessory; rather, it's the star ingredient! We combine it with a generous amount of lime juice for freshness, as well as mango and dates for sweetness. The result is an ultra-lush and creamy smoothie with a flavor that reminds us of Key lime pie.
