Pomegranate smoothie with avocado

Great time of day in the morning woman–have you lost your mind? And to answer you, no I haven’t. If you have never tried a pomegranate smoothie with avocado, let me just tell you what you’re missing. You’re missing rich, creamy, low-fat, protein-packed boosts of fruity goodness. That’s what. Open your mind with me for a moment…

The truth about me is that I don’t like eggs. There. I don’t. Ask most people what all health-minded folks should have for breakfast and they say what I dread. So what’s a girl to do? I get my protein another way. In a pomegranate smoothie with avocado. I started eating these filling little finds years ago when I would do big detox diets and basically eat nothing but grass and water for a week or two (okay mild exaggeration).

If you’ve never tried it, the combinations are endless. You can use any fruit, any liquid (juice, almond, soy milk, a hit of Jim Beam if you’re feeling frisky, you name it) and your choice of either Greek yogurt or a combo of yogurt and avocado for extra protein. Give it a whiz in your food processor (if your me and don’t own a blender) and it’s ready to go.

Slurp it down on the way to work (minus the Beam unless you want to get fired) or give them to your kids for a balanced breakfast (definitely minus the Beam unless you want to go to jail).
