  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper pinch

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Prep the avocado: Halve the avocado, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and add to the blender.
  2. Add remaining ingredients: Pour in the soy milk, then add the flaxseed, berries, spinach, turmeric, date, lemon juice, and a pinch of black pepper.
  3. Blend: Blend on high for 45–60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy. If too thick, add a splash of soy milk or water.

Notes

  • Storage/Cooking Tip: For a touch of additional sweetness, add one more pitted date.
  • Budget Swap: Swap fresh spinach for frozen.
