Gorgeous Green Smoothie
Why Kale in your smoothie? Because it's a quick, easy, and delicious way to get more greens into your diet. They’re full of fiber, antioxidants, enzymes, and chlorophyll. Green smoothies are the best way to digest and absorb nutrients from the greens because the blender helps to break down the cell walls, allowing your body to easily absorb those nutrients.
Gorgeous Green Smoothie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of raw greens (kale, chard, collards, spinach, etc)
- 2 cups liquid (non-dairy milk, fresh juice, coconut water, green tea, or water)
- 1 frozen banana (remove the peel, cut into 1-inch slices, and freeze overnight)
- 1 cup of frozen berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and/or blackberries)
- 2 tbsp Mila (chia blend)
Directions:
Remove any tough stems from the greens. Blend greens, liquid & Mila chia seeds for 15 seconds - 1 minute (depending on your blender) on high. Add fruits (and any supplements) and blend for 15 - 30 seconds, or longer as needed to achieve a creamy consistency. Drink up!
