Vegan Strawberry Avocado Smoothie

For many, an avocado smoothie sounds a little bleck, but in this one, the avocado taste is subtle and because the healthy kind of fat found in avocados is so essential  for our bodies,  sneaking a little avocado into a morning smoothie isn't a bad idea.  Place the following ingredients into a blender and mix until your heart's content!

10 frozen strawberries

15 frozen blueberries

1/2 small ripe avocado

1 banana

1/2  cup soy milk

1/4  cup water

2  tsp. honey (substitute agave nectar here for a truly vegan smoothie)
