Orange Avocado Banana Smoothie

I really love smoothies, and because of that I make them nearly every day; sometimes as a meal replacement, or just as a refreshing snack.  This simple 3 ingredient smoothie is what I consider a refreshing and delicious snack.  

Also, this smoothie is one of the only things that settled with me during morning sickness (a.k.a. "all-day-sickness").

  

(And avocados are packed with folic acid (a vitamin essential to forming your baby's brain and nervous system), potassium, vitamin C, and  vitamin b6 (which not only helps baby's brain and tissue growth, but may also help with your morning sickness.)

So if you're pregnant, planning to be, or just want a tasty way to get some essential vitamins, enjoy this tasty drink.
