Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen raspberries unsweetened
- 1 ripe avocado peeled, pitted, and cubed
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk

Notes
Storage: Best enjoyed fresh. If needed, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours—stir or shake before serving as separation may occur. Make-ahead: Prep avocado and measure ingredients the night before for a quicker morning blend. Substitutions: Use any frozen berries (like strawberries or blueberries) and swap almond milk for oat, soy, or coconut milk. For added protein, blend in a scoop of vanilla protein powder. Serving suggestion: Pair with a handful of nuts or whole-grain toast for a balanced meal.
