Avocado milkshake recipe, is my latest try with avocado to include it and try consuming avocado. A simple milkshake with milk, banana, vanilla and honey (or any sweetener).
I have tried guacamole before and posted it. Apart from it, I once tried avocado pesto, but did not like, I am not sure about the reason as I am not familiar with avocado that time. Probably it was not ripe?
Now one of my relative friend tried and asked me to try avocado milkshake. She tried with Ice cream, but I had no stock so tried it with banana. It turned out really rich, thick and delicious. Very filling too.
Do try for breakfast for your kid or yourself. How to choose an avocado? Choose a deep green one and keep it outside, not inside the fridge. Once the skin is most turned to black and if you press gently, you could feel it soft. I have video for this avocado milkshake, with how to cut, scoop and slice an avocado.

February 28, 2017 at 8:55 amI am not sure about that Sara, and its better to consume fresh. Definitely not to school since raw ingredients.

February 28, 2017 at 12:11 pmI was never interested in tasting this fruit because of its bland taste.. So I have also tasted it in the form of milkshake with banana as you have posted. It is such a yummy and filling drink. Yours looks perfect Raji as usual:)
