Green Goddess Kale Smoothie

I love a good kale smoothie!  I’ve grown organic kale in my garden since last fall.  I really enjoy clipping it fresh everyday for my drinks and recipes.  It’s so incredibly good for you!!  I don’t really follow recipes for my kale shakes.  I switch up different fruits and vegetables and even change my protein powders from time to time.  

I add oats or oat bran to pump up the fiber and fill me up until dinner.  I throw it all into my vitamix for a quick and healthy lunch.  Here is my base recipe, but feel free to get creative and add in your favorite ingredients.
