Smoothies have become so popular in recent years, but unfortunately the store-bought options often contain high sugar levels. But they are so easy to make at home, why not try them? You can use frozen strawberries or you can buy fresh and freeze them yourself which is ideal if your local farmers market has special deals on the berries! With lots of added fat, these smoothies will generally help you stay in ketosis despite the small amount of berries.
Red Velvet Smoothie
The Blenderist
Ingredients: coconut milk, almond milk or milk of choice, ice cubes, avocado, beet, cocoa or cacao powder, vanilla, stevia.
Most store-bought smoothies use bananas to provide a thickness to the drink, but you can try this ketogenic one which uses avocado instead. Avocado doesnt have a strong flavor so its perfect as a base for other flavors. You might think it unusual to use beets in a sweet dish, but then what about carrot cake? Beets have a natural sweetness, so add half the stevia first then adjust to suit your taste.
Cranberry Spice Tea
Gourmande in the Kitchen

Try to use avocados that are not too ripe so they will be easier to cut into slices.
Lemon Black Pepper Tuna Salad
