Avocado & Kale Smoothie

What to do with a ripe avocado on short notice? Avocados are yummy, versatile and satiating but I find they have a very small window of ripeness in my kitchen.  I took an unexpected day off of work, so I was able to haul out my juicer. I juiced a pink grapefruit and a tangerine then added the avocado and kale to blend it all up in my knockoff magic bullet (which works just great, by the way). It was a little tart, so maybe next time I would only use half a grapefruit and two tangerines.

Avocado & Kale Smoothie

-juice of 1 pink grapefruit
-juice of 1 tangerine
-1 Tablespoon lemon juice
-half an avocado, roughly cubed
-approx 1/2 cup packed kale leaves

Blend and enjoy! Add 1/4 cup of water if too thick.
