Chef's Notes
The avocado adds creaminess to the smoothie while also providing heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. Spinach is rich in vitamins A, C, and K.
Plating Tips
Arrange toppings in neat rows or sections across the surface of the bowl for a visually striking presentation. Contrast colors by placing bright berries against the green base and scatter almonds for texture.
