My last post was Kale Chips... one way to get some kale into your diet. This post is MUCH BETTER! I was looking for better ways to use up the rest of the kale I bought and I kept seeing a lot of recipes for smoothies. I found that apple juice was used commonly in the smoothies, but I never buy apple juice and it has tons of sugar in it (I'll save my high sugar doses for kale-free menu items). I also saw a few recipes with bad reviews (the author of the recipe actually suggested chugging the smoothie and then drinking a glass of water to get the taste out your mouth!)
I ran across this recipe from
allrecipies.com and it is good! Like I said yesterday, I don't lie to you!
What you need:
- 2 cups chopped kale
- 1 banana
- 1/2 cup milk (I used vanilla rice milk)
- 1 tsp maple syrup
What to do:
- Throw it all in a blender and puree until smooth. Serve over ice.
