Step-by-Step Instructions for Chocolate Avocado Banana Smoothie
  1. Begin by gathering all the ingredients: ripe avocado, cooked and chilled cauliflower, frozen banana, almond butter, vegan protein powder, cocoa powder, and plant milk.
  2. Add the avocado, cauliflower, frozen banana, almond butter, cocoa powder, and your choice of plant milk to the blender. Start blending on low speed for about 30 seconds until the mixture begins to combine.
  3. Once your Chocolate Avocado Banana Smoothie reaches a smooth consistency, it's time to taste! If you'd like a sweeter flavor, add 1-2 pitted dates. Blend again for 15-20 seconds.
  4. Pour the smoothie into a tall glass and sprinkle cacao nibs on top if desired. Enjoy immediately or store in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
