My smoothies do indeed tend to come out quite thick, to the point where I can pretty much eat them with a spoon. But you could always add more water to thin it out a bit if you wanted.
And my blender is actually on the cheaper end. I never owned one until I picked mine up on sale earlier this year, just for the purpose of trying out smoothies. I'd been looking for a way to incorporate avocado into my diet and this finally turned out to be a winner for me.

I've tried mixing up the frequency of both the salmon+spinach and the smoothies over the course of my journey, but as I wrote previously, it didn't make any more noticeable difference for me. As the saying goes, it can be possible to have too much of a good thing.
