Now that you’ve been tempted by that lovely image, here’s what you’ll need to whip up this incredible drink:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups kale, stems removed and packed
- 1 medium apple, cored and chopped (I love using a sweet variety like Fuji or Honeycrisp)
- 1 banana, ripe and frozen for extra creaminess
- 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1 tablespoon almond butter or peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, based on your sweetness preference)
- Ice cubes (optional, for additional chill)
Instructions:
- Begin by washing the kale thoroughly under cold water. Make sure to remove the tough stems, as they can make your smoothie gritty.
- In a blender, combine the kale, apple, frozen banana, and almond milk. If you choose to add almond or peanut butter, toss that in as well.
- Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth. If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add more almond milk, a little at a time, until you achieve your desired consistency.
- If you want to enhance the creaminess, consider adding a few ice cubes and blend again until they are fully integrated.
- Taste your smoothie and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding honey or maple syrup. Blend once more to mix everything together.
- Pour your vibrant green smoothie into a glass, and enjoy it as a wonderful breakfast or a mid-day snack!
This Kale Apple Smoothie is a perfect blend of health and happiness, awakening your taste buds with every sip. It’s a fantastic way to boost your energy while enriching your body with nutrients. Give it a try and enjoy the flavors of health in a glass!
