Kale Green Smoothie Recipes

By Tracy Russell

I recently wrote about the health benefits of using kale in your green smoothies. Kale is a highly nutritious leafy green to use in smoothies and is an excellent source of plant-based calcium. Here are some additional recipes you can try:

Pineapple-Kale

1 cup fresh pineapple, chopped
1 whole apple
2 cups organic kale
1/2-3/4 cup water

Orange-Peach-Kale

1 orange, peeled
1 peach
2 cups organic kale
1/2-3/4 cup water

Banana-Orange-Kale

1 banana, peeled
1 orange, peeled
2 cups organic kale
1/2-3/4 cup water

Orange-Kiwi-Kale

1 orange, peeled
1 kiwifruit
2 cups organic kale
1/2-3/4 cup water

Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth and creamy. If you do not have kale on hand, you can substitute other greens such as spinach or chard using the same amount (ie: 2 cups of spinach instead of 2 cups kale).

  1. Green Smoothies ROCK! Love them so much! I can’t imagine life without them. I love how my blender looks when it’s filled with all the delicious produce before blending… I’m proud and excited about what I’m putting in my body! Now, after blending, it doesn’t always look so good – LOL – but it sure TASTES AWESOME!!!

    Cheers,
    Kristen
