Kale Apple Smoothie
This is a great detoxifying drink. The apple takes a bit of the bitter edge off of the Kale, without making it too sweet. It is failry thin and easy to drink down.
Recipe = 5-7 large leaves of organic Kale (with center stem removed) + 1 small organic red delicious apple + 16 ounces water + Vita-Mix! Blend on high for 30 seconds.This makes 3 tall glasses. Total calories <100.
The mixture separates pretty quickly. So drink one glass and then turn on the Vita-Mix blender (low speed) for a few seconds before pouring your next glass.
I love smoothies but this one is not the best that I’ve tried. It’s too plain and has no flavor. I thought it was bearable the first sip but the second and third I made a face like a kid sucking on a lemon LOL.
the color is beautiful but it needs more flavor. People shouldn’t have to suffer for health SERIOUSLY!

Thank you for this recipe. It was exactly what I was looking for, and I’m excited to hear that it is detox as well!
