My dinner tonight - Sweet ginger glazed salmon with avocado over spinach and a mini sweet potato with cinnamon!
AMAZING Avocado smoothie!!
I made this tonight and it was so incredibly delicious. Putting an avocado in your smoothie is great because it makes it so creamy. :)
Ingredients:
1 avocado (I used a mini one from Trader Joe’s)
1 banana
1 kiwi
3 tablespoons Agave Nectar or Honey
about 1 cup of Vanilla Unsweetened Almond milk (I put a little less so that my smoothie would be thicker)
And here you have a delicious smoothie:
It was seriously so amazing, I wanted to have another one. I would suggest you put it in the fridge for a little while so that it can get nice and cold.
Yum!
Baked Eggs in Avocados (my version with egg whites)
It didn’t come out that pretty and took forever to cook, but it was still delicious!
Oh how I have missed avocados…
I bought two avocados the other day because I haven’t had any in so long.
I just had a half of one tonight mixed in with my quinoa.
delicious.
