KALE ORANGE BANANA SMOOTHIE

Sometimes it tastes like Fruit Loops® cereal, but, of course, this is actually good for you. My 14-month-old loves this for breakfast. Furthermore, he can feed himself (with a sippy cup) while I make breakfast and lunch for the older kids. The texture is similar to pudding. If runnier texture is desired, add ice or milk.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe bananas: Use ripe bananas for a sweeter and creamier smoothie. Overripe bananas are fine, but avoid bananas that are bruised or have brown spots.
  • Use frozen kale: Frozen kale is easier to blend and will help keep your smoothie cold. If you use fresh kale, be sure to wash and chop it finely before adding it to the blender.
  • Add other leafy greens: In addition to kale, you can also add other leafy greens to your smoothie, such as spinach, Swiss chard, or collard greens. This will boost the nutritional value of your smoothie and give it a more vibrant color.
  • Use unsweetened almond milk: Unsweetened almond milk is a good choice for a dairy-free smoothie. It is low in calories and has a neutral flavor that won't overpower the other ingredients.
  • Add a scoop of protein powder: If you want a more filling smoothie, add a scoop of your favorite protein powder. This will help keep you feeling full and satisfied.
  • Experiment with different fruits and vegetables: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making kale banana smoothies. Try adding different fruits, vegetables, and spices to create your own unique recipes.

Conclusion:

Kale banana smoothies are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day or refuel after a workout. They are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that can help improve your overall health. So next time you're looking for a healthy and refreshing snack, reach for a kale banana smoothie!
