Gingery Kale Smoothie

The VB6 Cookbook

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Put the ingredients into a blender in the order listed with 1/2 cup of the ice and reserving the seltzer.

Step 2

Puree until smooth, stopping to push the ingredients toward the blade; once the machine gets moving, stop once or twice more to scrape down the sides. Adjust the texture with more ice or a little seltzer. Serve immediately.

Step 3

In place of the banana, try pear or honeydew melon (1 cup chopped fruit). Spinach, watercress, or arugula can also be substituted for the kale. Increase the cucumber to 1 1/4 cups and skip the apple.
