Avocado Smoothie

Before you freak out on me and leave this page, just hear me out. The name of this recipe is enough to make me click the 'close window' button too. While we were in Vegas last weekend we stayed with Phil's sister Julie and she shared this awesome concoction that I have been dying to share with you.
I HATE FRUIT and therefore I HATE SMOOTHIES! That is until I gave this recipe a try. Guess what...I liked it......like a lot! I rushed home and made myself a batch. In fact this recipe makes about 3 days worth of smoothies for me (which I just keep in quart size jars in the fridge). The cool thing is you can't taste the avocado, but you are getting the healthy fat. I like to throw in a packet of Green On The Go with it too (but be warned it changes the flavor a little). It took me a few times to get used to the consistency (again I hate smoothies), but yeah for a healthy start to the day!
3 apples
1 avocado
1/2 can frozen juice concentrate
1/2 cup raw almonds
1 cup water
Blend for 1-2 minutes. Serve chilled. Store leftovers in fridge.
