I know. This sounds horrible and insane but you'll be pleasantly surprised by this nutrient dense smoothie. A sweetness comes out of the kale and gives these smoothies a delicious, hard to pinpoint taste. This is a great way to sneak kale into someone's diet.
The smoothie comes out a beautiful pale, minty green. And like any smoothie recipe, you are free to play with it by adding extra fruits or nuts. But start off with this one as-is and taste that amazing kale vibe.
INGREDIENTS
| 2 | frozen bananas |
| 1 cup | kale, raw and coarsely chopped |
| 1/2 tsp | vanilla |
| 1 1/2 cup | milk of your choice |
| 1 tbsp | honey |
PREPARATION:
Method
- Throw the bananas in a blender along with the kale, vanilla, and a cup of the milk.
- While it's running, pour in the rest of the milk and honey. You may need a little extra milk to get it to the consistency you like.
