This pear, avocado, and pineapple smoothie combo is ridiculously good. Despite being dairy-free, it’s creamy and tastes incredible.
In this article – we share an avocado, pear, and pineapple smoothie recipe that’s healthy, nutritious, and easy to prepare.
OK, the ingredient combo probably shouldn’t work on paper… After all, pear can be quite a delicate flavour, that’s easily overpowered by other ingredients. But for some reason, combining it with avocado and pineapple only magnifies its flavour.

This smoothie contains just 250 calories, yet provides a whopping 150% of your daily vitamin C requirement. This can help strengthen your immune system, so it’s fighting fit when faced with winter flu and colds.

It’s also a great base for smoothie bowls. Simply skip the water to ensure it blends to a super-thick consistency, and then top with your favourite nuts, seeds, or berries. Seriously, the creamy sweetness will fool your body into thinking it’s enjoying a decadent dessert instead of a healthy treat.
