Kiwi and Kale Smoothie

Prep:2minCook:2min

This Kiwi and Kale Smoothie is so easy to make for a healthy breakfast or snack and is loaded with fiber and protein to start your day off right. A couple notes on preparing this yummy smoothie… One. If you want to add in some protein powder to make this a full meal, I recommend using a vanilla or unflavored protein powder. Both work beautifully. Two. This smoothie is very dependent on the sweetness and ripeness of the fruits so the riper, the better. If you have unripe kiwi or banana, you’ll probably need to add in a little more raw honey. Three. If you’re nervous about the kale, please try it – just once – to see what you think. I bet you’ll love it. Four. To make this vegan, just replace the raw honey with pure maple syrup.

Step 2

Now, blend everything until it’s very smooth. You may need to blend a good minute or so to really puree the kale, depending on the strength of your blender.

Step 3

If your shake is too thick, you can add a little more almond milk or, if it’s a little too runny, add a little more ice and re-blend.
