Avocado Delight Avocado is a fruit made in vegan heaven for all kinds of scrumptious dairy-free shakes. Its flavor goes almost unnoticed when mixed with other ingredients, and all it brings to the table is an appealing light green color and a creaminess that no milk or yogurt could compete with. Juicing newcomers: Don’t be put off by the idea of adding avocado to your smoothies. Take the plunge and we promise it won’t disappoint.
Makes 1 glass 1 fennel bulb 1 kiwi, peeled 1 orange 1 cup parsley ½ avocado 1 tablespoon hempseeds or powder (optional) Juice the fennel, kiwi, orange, and parsley. Put this juice in a blender with the avocado and hempseeds. Process until smooth. If it’s too thick, add water or the juice of ½ cucumber. Serve immediately. If you don’t drink it soon the avocado will brown easily. Choosing a good avocado is a simple endeavor. All you have to do is press it gently to see if your fingers sink into it slightly. If it’s too soft (like butter), run away, as you will most likely find a blackened inside when you open it. If all you can find are hard-as-rock avocados, put them in a paper bag at room temperature until they soften.
