This extra thick and creamy chocolate smoothie bowl is fruit-free except for some low-sugar, heart-healthy avocado. It’s packed with nutrients like magnesium, protein, omega-3s and antioxidants and the taste and consistency is somewhere between chocolate pudding and cake batter.
Ingredients
- 1 serving (44 g) Vega Performance Protein in Chocolate
- 2 tbsp (15 g) raw cacao powder
- 2 tbsp (20 g) chia seeds
- 1 tbsp (15 g) nut butter of choice
- 1 cup (125 g) frozen chopped zucchini
- 1/4 cup (30 g) fresh or frozen avocado
- 1/4 cup (30 g) fresh or frozen cooked, chopped sweet potato
- 1/2 tsp sea salt (optional)
- 3/4 cup unsweetened plant-based milk or water
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and pulse until combined. To keep it extra thick, don’t over-mix or mix too long as the heat from the blender will melt it. Pulse until it’s all broken down and creamy but still a bit chunky.
Notes
To make this into a drinkable smoothie, increase liquid to 1 cup and then adjust as needed to reach desired consistency.

I’ve added the nutrition facts to the recipe. Enjoy!
Awesome recipe! I have tried this at my home last night & my kids also loved it! I’m excited to try your other recipe! Thank you Deryn for this awesome smoothie!
This is so delicious and creamy! The sweet potato adds just enough sweetness. Thanks for the recipe!

You’re welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!
How do you recommend cooking and storing the sweet potato? Cubed? Peeled? Thanks!
I bake them in the peel, then the peel just kinda falls off once they’re cooked. Then I mash them into ice cube trays and freeze. Once frozen solid, I pop the cubes out and store in a container. 🙂
Hi, Deryn!
I just love anything chocolatey, but I am deliberately cutting down my sugar intake because of family history of diabetes – on both parents’ sides!
Avocados are perfect for smoothies because of their texture. I never thought they can blend well with chocolate!
Thank you for this recipe. I’m definitely going to try it!
Oh ya, they’re so good with chocolate!! Def try them frozen too, it’s amazing. Enjoy!
Yum! What’s on top?
Some toasted coconut, hemp seeds and pecans!
Hi Deryn,
This looks fabulous! Since I am allergic to avocado, would you please let me know what I can substitute with?
Thanks so much!

You can leave it out and add 1/4 cup more frozen sweet potato or zucchini, or replace it with 1/4 cup fresh or frozen coconut meat. 🙂 Enjoy!
I always have urges at night and it’s really a big problem for me because I keep on eating a lot so I am looking for recipes that will make me less guilty about something delicious but still healthful. But oh my, this chocolate avocado smoothie bowl is making me salivating. I can’t wait to create this. Reading like it feels like ice cream, ah, this will be heaven.

For sure, it’s all about small improvements and healthier options and this smoothie is a great choice. And it totally satisfies an ice cream craving! I hope you enjoy it!
This. Looks. AMAZING! I love using zucchini in my smoothies, and I honestly prefer my smoothies with way more veggies than fruit. It’s amazing how overwhelming a super sweet smoothie can taste after going low sugar for awhile!
I know, right? I’m loving eating lower sugar and the texture of zucchini is so amazing in smoothies!
