AVOCADO & LEMON SMOOTHIE
Nov 11, 2015Yes I know green smoothies have been done to death but they are such a regular part of my diet now because there's so many variations and it's the perfect way to tick all the boxes which can be difficult to achieve in a lot of breakfast meals...protein, greens, healthy fats and complex carbs. This one might sound like an unusual combo but do give it a go, I promise you won't be disappointed.
