Ingredients​

Illustrated ingredient arrangement for avocado, spinach, and chia smoothie
Ingredients for the proposed fixed formula; exact amounts are listed below.
  • 360 g (360 ml / 1 1/2 cups) unsweetened almond milk, chilled
  • 30 g (1 cup packed) fresh baby spinach
  • 100 g (1/2 medium) ripe avocado, pitted and peeled
  • 12 g (1 tablespoon) chia seeds
  • 15 g (1 tablespoon) fresh lemon juice
  • 75 g (1/2 cup) ice cubes
  • 0.3 g (a pinch) sea salt

Equipment​

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Serving glass
  • Clean kitchen towel or paper towel

Method​

  1. Rinse the avocado and lemon under running water before cutting, and rinse the spinach unless its package says prewashed or ready-to-eat. Dry the produce with a clean towel or paper towel.
  2. Pour 360 g unsweetened almond milk into the blender first so the remaining ingredients blend smoothly against the blades.
  3. Add 30 g baby spinach, 100 g peeled and pitted avocado, 12 g chia seeds, 15 g fresh lemon juice, and 0.3 g sea salt.
  4. Blend, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until no large pieces of spinach or avocado remain visible; blender times vary.
  5. Add the ice cubes and blend again until they are incorporated.
  6. Check the mixture for unblended pieces and blend again if needed; its final thickness and color are untested.
  7. Pour into a glass and serve promptly; blend again if it separates before serving.

Practical notes​

  • Spinach and avocado texture can vary by ripeness and blender power, so blending time is a checking cue rather than a fixed result.
  • Choose an unsweetened almond drink and check its current label; added sugars and ingredients differ by product.
  • Serve after blending; storage quality and color changes were not tested.

Contains tree nuts (almond milk); check the specific almond milk label for any additional allergens.

Food safety: Follow FDA fresh-produce guidance before cutting or blending. Serve promptly and use perishable-handling guidance if it is not consumed right away.

The ingredients follow a lower-carbohydrate style, but no nutrient calculation or individual keto-fit verdict has been approved for this formula.
