Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup pistachios , ground up, unshelled, unsalted (30 grams)
  • 1/2 cup half and half
  • 2-3 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp pistachio extract (or sub almond extract)
  • pinch salt
  • 1 medium zucchini , peeled (95g/3.3oz)
  • 2 tsp Swerve
  • Stevia to taste
  • 14 ice cubes *

Instructions

  • High Powered Blender: Add liquids/soft ingredients first, then ice, and blend.
  • Ninja: Add ice first, then rest of ingredients on top. Do crush function first to crush ice. Scrape sides with a spatula, then blend.
  • Both: You will likely need to scrape the sides with a spatula a time or two.

Notes

*So I’ve discovered ice cube size can vary! These are made with ice-cube trays purchased  online. If you make your smoothie and it seems too watery/liquidy and not thick like the photo or the video tutorials don’t worry, you aren’t crazy! Your ice-cubes are just smaller. Either add more ice-cubes or buy some trays online to use. The point is your smoothie should be kind of hard to blend- that’s how thick it should be.
