The sun is shining and there's lots to do today so I'm starting it off with a thick and creamy healthy drink. There's kale in there and look how incredibly smooth this baby is. I love my Vitamix, it's a machine that gets a daily workout around here. (Look Angela! no kale chunks!)
In case you want to whip up your own sweet and tangy mix of goodness:
1 apple
1/2 banana
1/2 avocado
2 cups kale
juice of 1/2 a lemon (I used a reamer to get the most out of it) use less for not so much tang
1/2 can coconut milk
4 ice cubes
Blend. Drink. Yum.
Have a great day!! It's bleepin' cold and windy in these parts!


Looks and sounds so delicious, I'm throwing this into my vitamix too.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you like it.
DeleteSo far I have not been able to jump on this green smoothie bandwagon. Maybe someday...
ReplyDeleteHave you tried any? I'll tell ya, since you are wary, only a high powered blender will do, IMO, because otherwise you end up with little flakes of fruit and veggies.
DeleteYou can't even taste the kale but you are getting the benefits. I do make some that are very earthy tasting, too, and R.'s girls call them my 'swamp drinks'. LOL
yum?
ReplyDeleteif you say so.
tomorrow I start Weight Watchers.
yep on Sunday because Monday is such a cliche.
not actually going to meetings,
just writing it all down and ading up the "points".
Today?
A Fritter for breakfast
and then later some cheese, bread and wine
with Oreo's on the side.
;)
You'll make Weight Watchers proud! LOL
DeleteYummm I like the looks of that one, Denise! Once we are completed inducted into the smoothie world starting with our nutri bullet, we will graduate to a VitaMix. If I put this recipe in the bullet, I'd be picking pieces of Kale out of my teeth for a day. LOL.
