Not kidding, I still dream about the pistachio desserts I had in Italy. Particularly the gelato and croissants. This Pistachio Banana Smoothie with Avocado is inspired by all the pistachio desserts I had in Italy. It is rich with pistachio flavor and full of protein and healthy ingredients.
This smoothie is easy to make. It makes 2 servings so it is the perfect make ahead breakfast. I love that it makes 2 servings because then I have an extra left over for the next day. This smoothie is packed with healthy fats and plant protein so it will keep you full all day.
Let's get into the recipe.

WHAT BLENDER DO I HAVE?
I have a vitamix 7500 series. This blender is an investment that will last you for 10+ years. I absolutely love mine.
WHAT PROTEIN DO I LIKE?
I have tried at least 10 different protein powders and my favorite is Sprout Living. I get the vanilla lucuma but all of the flavors are good! I love this one because it is a complete protein source with no fillers or gums. They also use things like real vanilla or cacao so the protein doesn’t taste like chemicals.
