I have one of these every day, because it adds about 600 calories to my day. Yeah, it's that high in calories. I know that most people are trying to lose weight, but this post is for those who are trying to gain it. The coconut milk can easily be subbed for all almond milk and the avocado can be omitted (the end result won't be as creamy, though).
It's not to bad, either. I normally don't like banana but the strawberries in this cover up the taste.
I don't like strawberries plain, because they're to seedy. It's just a texture thing. I don't mind their taste.
If you're like me and struggle in raking in enough calories a day, then drink one of these! It's nice and creamy like a milkshake. It's also very refreshing on a hot summer's night.
It's also gluten and soy free. And vegan (if you don't use honey)!
1/3 c. coconut milk
2/3 c. almond milk or other non-dairy milk
1/4 avocado
4-5 large frozen strawberries
1 frozen medium banana
about 1 T. of honey, maple syrup, or agave depending on how sweet you like your smoothies
1. Throw all the ingredients into your blender.
2. Blend until creamy.
3. Pour in a cup and enjoy!
Inquiry of the Day:
Are you bothered by the texture of some things?
That is the biggest reason I don't like the foods that I don't like. Mushrooms are rubbery. Strawberries have too many seeds. Rice flour makes things have a grainy texture. See? Picky about my textures.

Try to make one that's not 600 carlories because I need to lose weight! :p
ReplyDeleteYou can make one with 280 calories by using plain almond milk, and omitting the coconut milk and avocado. And you do not need to lose weight!
