On-the-Go Strawberry Breakfast Smoothie ingredients

  • Liquid sweetener. Agave nectar (vegan) and 100% pure honey (paleo) work well in this recipe.
  • Frozen strawberries. If you have enough time, then let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight. On the quick, thaw them in the microwave. But be careful not to “cook” them. A low defrost setting is a great place to start. You can also use fresh strawberries if you’d like.
  • Avocado. One that is fresh and easily peeled is best. If you find one that is just past its prime, then throw it in a Single-Serving Chocolate Chia Smoothie and select a fresher avocado for this recipe.

Recipe FAQs

  • How noticeable is the avocado? If you use a fresh avocado, at most, just barely. I made it one time, really thinking about whether I could detect the avocado flavor. And thinking really hard, yes, I detected it. When I went back for seconds, without thinking about it, I didn’t notice it at all. My children, including the super-picky eater who doesn’t like avocados, love this recipe.
  • How can I tell if an avocado is the right kind of freshness for this recipe? Anytime I use an avocado to make a recipe creamy, in addition to looking at how green it is, I also do the smell test. If I notice an over-ripened smell, then I don’t use it.
  • What is the different between using frozen strawberries and using fresh strawberries? The frozen strawberries offer a slightly thicker consistency and a pinker color. The fresh strawberries produced a thinner smoothie that was a little sweeter and more orange in color. Either will work in this recipe.
