# Tips from dashanddishes:
01 -
- The avocado makes it impossibly creamy without any dairy sneaking in
- You can literally eat dessert for breakfast and feel like a wellness champion
02 -
- The smoothie base melts way faster than you'd expect so work quickly once blended
- Using entirely frozen fruit means you can skip ice which waters down the flavor
03 -
- Toast your coconut flakes and pumpkin seeds separately for maximum crunch
- Use a tamper if your blender came with one to get every last bit blended smooth
