- 1 cup spinach
- 1/2 cup coconut water
- 1/4 avocado

Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and prepare your blender and serving bowls.

- Place fresh spinach leaves on top of the mango to help create a smoother blending process.
- Carefully slice and scoop out 1/4 of a ripe avocado, adding it to the blender for creamy texture and healthy fats.
- Pour coconut water into the blender, using just enough to help the ingredients blend smoothly without making the mixture too liquid.
- Blend all ingredients on high speed for 45-60 seconds, stopping to scrape down sides if necessary, until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Pour the smoothie mixture evenly into two serving bowls, using a spatula to ensure all contents are transferred.
- Artfully arrange toppings: sprinkle granola around the edges, scatter coconut flakes in the center, and add a variety of chopped nuts for extra crunch.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the smoothie bowl at its freshest and coldest temperature.
