Lee’s Avocado Smoothie is an interesting drink, but it really is not all that healthy. The avocado is great, but high in fat (albeit, good fat).
On top of the avocado, the ingredients include ice cream, milk and sugar (according to Lee’s employees), which gives it a sweet taste . . .
But also makes it high in calories.
Here is the breakdown:
1/2 of 1 Avocado = 161
1 Cup Ice Cream = 314
1/2 cup Skim Milk = 45
2 Tbsp Sugar = 93
This combined gives you a grand total of 613 Calories.
This is an approximate estimation based, but I am sure that it is pretty close.
Good luck and I hope that you ENJOY your smoothie!!
To ease your mind:
Avocados have 60% more potassium than bananas. They are rich in B vitamins, as well as vitamin E and vitamin K. They have the highest fiber content of any fruit – including 75% insoluble and 25% soluble fiber. So really . . . ENJOY!
