Notes
This recipe is for 2 servings of chocolate avocado smoothie.
You can use regular coconut milk instead of full-fat. If you do, the smoothie will have a slightly thinner consistency but also a lot fewer calories.
You can substitute the coconut milk for unsweetened plant milk or nut milk. If you're not vegan, you could use a few tablespoons of yogurt instead.
Instead of the avocado, you can use 1/2 of a banana.
I recommend chilling the avocado, coconut milk, and water for a cold, creamy texture.
This smoothie can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
