Avocados are an incredible food to add to your diet. I try to eat two to three of them a day. Avocados top the list of foods with anti-aging benefits. Get obsessed about eating avocados because they are a healthy source of must-have fats. They are rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats that work to lower cholesterol and are full of fiber, keeping your heart and skin healthy. Avocados are a great source of vitamin C and mineral salts crucial for supporting the production of collagen, a structural skin protein that holds soft tissue creating tone and elasticity. Here is a recipe to make avocados a delicious part of your family’s diet:
Avocado Smoothie
(One to two servings)
3 ripe avocados
1 ½ cup of almond or cashew milk
1 or more cups of crushed ice
Stevia, honey or your favorite sweetener to taste
Pinch cinnamon, nutmeg or your favorite spice
Blend in a high-speed blender until creamy smooth. Kids will love it too!
