AVOCADO + MATCHA PROTEIN SHAKE

I wish I could take credit for this shake recipe, but its inspired by The Protein Bar in Chicago.  The HUBS and I went in there for breakfast one morning while we were visiting.  If I were being completely honest, this combination sounded questionable at best, but it came highly recommended so we decided to give it a shot.  Turns out its amazing.  It tastes like an iced caramel latte to me?  I know that sounds strange, but the matcha has this really fragrant caramely sweetness to it.  So naturally when I like things a lot I try to recreate them.
