Lamb's lettuce is usually a winter salad, but its nutty, delicate leaves also work in a glass. With avocado it becomes a creamy, savoury green smoothie.

Creamy and savoury, with a nutty, grassy flavour and a fresh lemon edge.
Lamb's lettuce, also called corn salad or mâche, has small, tender leaves with a mild, slightly nutty flavour. Avocado provides a buttery texture and mostly unsaturated fats. Together they make a smoothie that is creamy and savoury rather than sweet; a squeeze of lemon keeps it fresh.
This is a green drink for people who like vegetables more than fruit. It goes well with a light lunch or as a small glass in the afternoon.
