Smoothies are a great way to include lots of power packed nutrition in a fun drink! We make smoothies several times a week and enjoy them for breakfast or snack. This smoothie really surprised me! My friend Margaret told me she put kale in smoothies for her girls in the summer. She said they could not taste the kale. I thought I would try it with an existing recipe I use.
Banana Nut Butter Smoothie
1 cup almond milk
1-2 frozen bananas
2 T. Nut Butter (almond, peanut, sunflower, etc)
1/8 cup Juice Plus Vanilla Complete
2 T flax seed meal
1 stalk of kale
Blend well. Add ice if you would like it thicker. (This recipe is easily doubled!)
We were all surprised that we could not taste the kale. It turned it a beautiful green color! Since then we have added kale to lots of smoothies we make.
