Tips: Remove tough ribs from the kale and use a high-speed blender for smoother texture. Store the ingredients in the refrigerator for an extra-chilled, refreshing smoothie.
Variations: For a creamier, more filling smoothie, use coconut milk or cream in place of almond milk.
To increase the protein, add a scoop of your favorite vanilla or unflavored protein powder.
This smoothie is not super sweet. To increase the sweetness, add a couple drops of liquid stevia.
Storage: You can store your smoothie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
