Peppermint chocolate smoothie (v gf)

Have you ever smelled peppermint? Well I can tell you that it smells amazing! 🌿

I added a spoonful of nut butter to my smoothie (because I’m addicted to nut butter) you don’t have to add it unless you are like me!😂

how many of you are the kind of person who could have a smoothie for breakfast every morning even if your freezing through winter while your eating it. Yup that’s me! I could eat a smoothie any day at any time! Another good quality of this smoothie is that it’s also made of avocado so it passes as a meal (is it dessert?)

It’s so close to Christmas but it still hasn’t even been thanksgiving and I’m already getting ready for Christmas! I don’t under stand this that people buy fall decorations and don’t even wait for the main fall holiday? They end up decorating for Christmas before thanksgiving even comes. I’m not judging because well… I do the same thing! Lol!🤣☺️

Avocado. Use a ripe avocado but taste it first (I made the mistake of using an overripe avocado the first try).
Banana. I didn’t use a frozen banana for this recipe but it turned out for the good because it has a custard-like texture.
Milk. I used oat milk because it’s amazing but any dairy free milk will do.
Chocolate chips. I used allergen friendly chocolate chips so don’t worry gluten free people I hear you!!
