It's hard to believe something as luscious as this frosty is classified as a "snack," instead of a dessert, but given all the great nutrition in every creamy bite, I'm serving it up as an after-school nibble. The avocado in this recipe adds healthy monounsaturated fat as well as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. To jazz up each bowlful, top with shredded, unsweetened coconut, fresh berries, sliced bananas, or chopped nuts.
Ingredients
- 1 ripe, fresh California Avocado, peeled, seeded and cut into ¾-in. dice and frozen
- 1½ ripe bananas, peeled, cut into ½-in. slices and frozen
- 3 Tbsp. agave nectar
- 3 Tbsp. cocoa powder
- 1 Tbsp. virgin coconut oil
- 2 tsp. lemon juice
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- Remove the avocado and banana from the freezer and thaw slightly, about 20 minutes.
- Place the avocado, banana, agave nectar, cocoa powder, coconut oil, lemon juice, vanilla extract and salt in a blender and process for 60 seconds. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Continue to process until smooth and creamy; the mixture should resemble soft serve ice cream.
- Scoop the frosty into bowls and garnish with optional toppings.
I like adding sliced avocados on my turkey sandwich

Fresh guacamole, hands down. Fresh tomato, diced, avocados, smashed, garli, lime juice and cilantro…yum
My favourite way to use avacados is as a topping to my recipes when I serve the dish. For example on top of chilli, black bean soup or any soup, on top of toast, etc. I also just serve avacado mashed with a squeeze of lime and salt for a quick guacamole 🙂 I already follow MMM on Facebook, Twitter, and faithfully listen to your podcasts 🙂
As a child I can remember eating avocados sliced in half (with the pit removed of course) with a bit of apple cider vinegar poured in the hole the pit left. Just scoop and eat. I still eat them that way to this day. Love it. I also eat them on sandwiches and in salads. Yummy!!!
