This smoothie is very low in fat. Whether you are watching your weight or not, it’s a good idea to take in a bit of heart healthy fat with each meal; your body needs it to function and it helps to satisfy your hunger for a longer period of time. A tablespoon of peanut butter, a quarter of an avocado, or slice of cheese would all be great choices for possible accompaniments with a low fat smoothie like this one.
