Ingredients:
– 1 ripe avocado, peeled and pitted

1. **Add the sliced bananas, avocado, and almonds** to a blender.
2. **Pour in the milk**. Start with 1/2 cup and add more if needed to achieve the desired consistency.

5. **Serve immediately** in a glass, optionally garnishing with a few chopped almonds on top.
