I made this recipe this morning, it’s quite lovely and my grandson loved it. However, I omitted the sugar, ice and used 1 mango not 2. I added 2 T of wheat germ and about another c of milk because it was extremely thick. Overall it was delish!
Does this really have cholesterol? Where does that come from?
Hi JJ, nice catch! This does not have cholesterol and the recipe has been updated.
You can lose the sugar and replace it with three pieces of fresh Stevia leaves. I grow a lot of Stevia and I don’t like the powder form which is purified and is no different than other highly processed foods. Stevia is easy to grow, even in pots indoors. Lose also the coconut flakes and the agave nectar, they don’t contribute much except for the increased calories and cost, and they are overpowered by the avocado flavor that they would not be detectable especially with a powerful Blendtec. Instead of using Chia seeds, why not use one serving of Nutiva Hemp Protein that has a dietary fiber of 8 grams and 15 grams of protein.
Skip the Almond Milk and add Yogurt, skip the agave too – make this a bit thicker and you can turn it into yummy baby food too!
