Notes
* Frozen avocado creates the thickest, creamiest smoothie bowl. If using a fresh ripe avocado, the texture will be slightly softer.
* Greek yogurt makes the smoothie bowl extra thick. If using regular yogurt, start with a little less since it's thinner.
* The amount of maple syrup is completely up to you. Growing up in Brazil, avocado was always served as a sweet treat, so I like mine on the sweeter side.
* Don't skip the lemon! A generous squeeze balances the richness of the avocado and makes all the flavors pop.
* Smoothie bowls are best enjoyed immediately. Please note calories provided are only an estimate
