Did you know that an avocado is actually a fruit?  I didn’t.  I always thought it was in the veggie group.  Green, slimy, kids won’t eat it.  It must be a veggie.  Digging deeper the avocado is a berry.  My kids new better.  “Mom, everything with a seed is a fruit”.

High in fiber (10g), vitamin C, vitamin B 6, and more potassium than a banana sneak these heart healthy fruits into your morning smoothies.

We enjoy this recipe so much we have it every week.
