Avocado Shake

Ah, Monday! Many good intentions have started on Mondays. Today is my first day back on the ketosis wagon. I've had a very indulgent carb up weekend while celebrating my cousins' birthday. 

I woke up this morning to strong winds, snow, and dreaming of summer. The winds have died down but the snow still rages on. Now, a cold drink is not very ideal for this weather but I did just come back from hot yoga so I'm pretty warm. I've had a love-love relationship with avocado shakes since I was little when my dad use to make them for me during a hot day in the Philippines. His version had avocado, ice, & condensed milk and tasted like heaven. 

My keto friendly version has a few substitutes and an addition to make it healthier. Here's the recipe:
