Food:Cherry Avocado Citrus Smoothie

Let me start off by saying I am not really a huge fan of Avocado.  I know that it is good for me and has ton's of health benefits but I am not a fan.  I went on a limb last week and bought five anyway, since they were on sale. I am trying to change my families eating habit, which I know starts with me.

I still have a love-hate relationship with avacado, but today I created my own recipe "Cherry Avocado Citrus Smoothie." Yummy.  So I figured I would share it with my subscribers....
