The word “detox” can mean different things to different people, so this recipe keeps it simple. There are no extreme cleanses or complicated rules here. Instead, this avocado green smoothie is about adding more fruits, vegetables, seeds, and wholesome ingredients to your day in an easy, delicious way. A smoothie like this can be a practical choice when you want to start the morning with something fresh and nourishing.
Because avocado and chia seeds naturally thicken the mixture, the smoothie has a rich texture that feels more substantial than many fruit-only blends. The spinach blends in smoothly and has a very mild flavor, so even if you are not usually excited about leafy greens in drinks, this recipe is an easy place to start.
