QUITE GOOD!
I turned this into a meal substitution by adding vanilla protein powder. I also used some chia seeds in place of the avocado, which weren't ripe at the store. The mint adds a really nice flavor to this smoothie. I will definitely make this again.

Quite delicious
I substitute the lemon with a mandarine and it was quite delicious. Very filling because of the avocado. I will try it next with lemon to compare. I also liked the texture and the light green color (see picture).
