Pear, Spinach and Avocado Smoothie

I'm making it a mission to find the best tasting green smoothies out there, with enough vegetables that still make them super healthy. My previous "Ultimate Green Smoothie" went down a treat, but I think I might have an even better one here! 

This smoothie is thicker and creamier, less of a juice consitency, than my ultimate green smoothie. This is down to the creamy avocado, my new favourite thing to put inside a smoothie!

Spinach is less bitter than kale so it automatically makes the smoothie sweeter. Spinach also blends much more finely than kale, which makes a smoother texture. If you prefer kale in your smoothies, then substitute it exactly. The only fruit I include are 2 small, ripe, sweet pears. Make sure your pears are soft and ripe before using as this is when they are at their sweetest.

Makes 2 1/2 glasses

2 ripe small pears

1 avocado

Handul of spinach

1 cup coconut water

knob of ginger

loads of mint leaves (to taste!)

1 lime

1 tbsp chia seeds

1 tsp wheatgrass

Chuck it all in the blender and mix! Have one with breakfast, and another as a snack to keep the sweet cravings at bay.
