Notes
- This smoothie will take you no more than 5 minutes to make. Use it as your go-to delicious green smoothie recipe.
- It's better to use ripe bananas. In this case, you will need less sweetener as they are naturally sweeter.
- Don't underestimate a pinch of sea salt. It balances the taste of this smoothie making it just right!
- Use water to thin up the smoothie to your liking.
- If you have leftover kale, use it for kale pumpkin salad, vegan casserole with sweet potatoes and kale, harvest salad, buddha bowl or vegan zuppa toscana.
- Use any type of kale for your green smoothie. Most common are curly kale and Tuscan (Lacinato) kale. Here are some more kale varieties that you might want to consider.
- Fresh spinach can be substituted for kale for a delicious green smoothie.
- Use any other sweetener instead of maple syrup: agave juice, date syrup or molasses. You'll need less sweetener if you use ripe bananas.
- If you don't want to add the sweetener, toss 2 or 3 Medjool dates instead.
- Use frozen banana for a creamy chilled effect.
- You can use lime juice in place of lemon juice.
- Any nut milk or oat milk can be substituted for almond milk.
