What’s green, luscious and the crème de la crème of the produce aisle? Avocados! Good for you in so many ways, this treat is high in fiber, good fats and many vitamins. Because nothing this healthy should be this unrepentantly delicious, we combined avocado’s goodness with quinoa and banana to craft a luxurious smoothie that counts as a whole breakfast.
