How To Make A Tasty Kale Smoothie

First, start with frozen fruit! In this recipe you’ll need the following ingredients:

ingredients for making a kale tropical smoothie measured out on a counter
  • Frozen wild blueberries- Wyman’s of Maine is my go-to brand
  • Frozen mango chunks
  • Kale leaves-washed and chopped (no hard stems-just the tender leaves)
  • Vanilla Greek yogurt-I love the Oikos Triple Zero here- no sugar and high in protein. Oikos Pro with 20 grams of protein adds even more protein to this shake.
  • Low-sugar orange juice- Trop50 or other similar 50-calorie-per-serving juice keeps the carbs down while adding great flavor- feel free to use freshly squeezed if you prefer fresh juice
  • Unsweetened almond milk- or your milk of choice
  • Raw shelled hemp seeds- adds a protein and nutrition boost
  • Ice cubes- to thicken the shake- feel free to adjust to your shake texture preference

Directions

Add all of the ingredients to a blender.

How To Prepare Make-Ahead Smoothie Packets

You can save time in the morning by assembling bags of your smoothie ingredients to store in the freezer. I measure out all of the non-liquid ingredients and place them together into Ziploc bags. You can make one for each day of the week. This way, all you have to do is toss the bag of ingredients into the blender, add the liquid ingredients and you’re ready to roll. This method is perfect for mornings on the run!
