Chocolate Avocado Smoothie

This recipe was inspired by Kristi, because she mentioned this morning about making a smoothie out of bananas that she had lying around. I think we also discussed that they might be better off for banana bread, but truly the conversation now seems a bit foggy. However, I can tell you usually once I have an idea in my mind - I typically follow through with it. Especially when it comes down to food.

This weekend is the Canada long weekend, except it's not truly a long weekend because I have to work on Monday. And I also have to stick my long run on Tuesday morning, which means I'll miss another CrossFit workout. However, I've been contemplating running all the way to the box...I just would need to figure out how I would get home. Running would not be an option after the fact, but I'm sure I'd figure something out.

So back to food, originally I wanted to make a strawberry banana smoothie. Knowing I had no bananas, I went to the grocery store to pick some up. Upon returning home, I realized I had no frozen strawberries. So there went that plan. But I think I came up with something even better!
