• 2¼ cups (340 g) diced watermelon
• 1 cup (150 g) hulled fresh or frozen strawberries
• ¼ cup (40 g) avocado
• 1 to 2 teaspoons (15 - 30 ml) pure maple syrup or 1 or 2 pitted Medjool dates, to taste (optional)
  

TOPPINGS

• Blueberries
• Diced kiwi or grapes
• Diced pineapple
• Diced mango
• Diced watermelon
• Diced strawberries

Freeze 1 cup (150 g) of the watermelon (and the hulled strawberries, if using fresh) overnight, or for several hours.

In a high-speed blender, blend the remaining 1¼ cups (190 g) fresh watermelon on low-medium speed until watery.

Add the frozen watermelon, frozen strawberries, and avocado. Blend until smooth.  If you have a Vitamix, I recommend using the tamper to help it blend.

Taste and add the maple syrup, if desired. Blend again until smooth.

Pour the smoothie into a shallow bowl.  If desired, add the toppings in the pattern of a rainbow, as shown in the picture.  

Let the kids help! Enjoy immediately before it melts!
