Revitalizing Kale Smoothie

Revitalizing Kale Smoothie

No ratings yet
This smoothie is perfect for using up bruised and ripe fruits, but the highlight is the slightly limp, not-so-fresh looking kale. As long as there's no water leaching out, the greens should be fine! Add them to the smoothie for a huge nutritional boost in your day.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Servings: 2
