Autumn Apple Smoothie

Ohhh, this one's a keeper. To boot, it has nuttin' but fruits and veggies. No sugar, no powder, no milk... just the orchard in a glass. This is one silky smooth way to drink to your health.

You can make it totally raw by using unpasturized or fresh apple juice and freshly squeezed lemon.

AUTUMN APPLE SMOOTHIE
1/2 ripe avocado, skinned and pitted
1 McIntosh apple, cored
1-2 cups (depending on your desired consistency) 100% apple juice, not from concentrate with no additives
1-2 tsp lemon juice
1 ripe, spotty banana, peeled



1. Toss the avocado half in the blender. Chunk up the apple and add that too. Give it a whir with a little bit of liquid.



2. Add banana in pieces and blend until smooth and consistent with no chunks. Add more apple juice and blend as desired. Drink up, my friend!





PROS: silky smooth, nutritious, delicious, green, vegan, back-to-the-basics yumminess
CONS: can't completely obliterate apple skin bits. but they don't really get in the way...
