Ingredients

  • 2 cups  kale massaged if desired, torn leaves, removed from stem
  • 12 Mango chunks, frozen
  • 1 banana
  • 1 kiwi peeled, large
  • ½ cup coconut milk
  • flax seeds optional, or chia seeds, sprinkle

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Blend! Blend it. Blend it real good! That's it!
  2. Using a blender or processor, combine above ingredients and blend into green smoothie perfection. The longer you blend the kale the more it will break up, and the thickness will greatly depend on the ingredients used.
  3. Since I used frozen mango and coconut milk, my smoothie was super thick yet still easy to drink through my favorite glass straw. If you only have fresh mango handy, consider using frozen banana to thicken. Use the above recipe as a guide then adjust to taste as needed. New to kale? Consider adding a bit more mango to kale ratio and then working your way up as needed. Easy peasy!

Notes

  • Serve garnished with extra kiwi slices for added freshness and presentation.
  • Select coconut milk type based on flavor and fat preference; canned adds richness, carton is lighter.
  • Use frozen banana if fresh mango is not frozen to maintain thickness.
