    Sounds good! I was wondering in general, how does avocado affect the taste of a shake? We never really had avocados growing up, so I never really have tried it even after leaving the house oh so long ago.

    I bought one at the produce place, but I was unimpressed with it raw. So, I was wondering how it affects flavor and if a shake would be a way I could incorporate them.

      A few tablespoons does not effect the taste at all. Try a quarter of a small avocado to start. It will certainly add creaminess and lots of nutrition!

        Thanks! That’s what I’m hoping for. I just didn’t want to try it again and it be blah. That would be two strikes and I really want it to work!

          You need to make sure it is a ripe avocado otherwise it’s gross. Have someone who knows avocados to show you how soft the avocado hould be when you eat it.

            True! It most definitely needs to be ripe.
