Berry Green Smoothie

Ingredients

2 cups kale, stems removed & leaves torn into small pieces

2 cups unsweetened hazelnut milk

1 banana, frozen & sliced

1/2 cup frozen raspberries

1/2 cup frozen berry mix: blackberries, blueberries, & black raspberries

1 cup wild blueberries, frozen

1 Tbs nut butter (almond or cashew)

Directions

Blend kale and hazelnut milk until smooth. Next, blend in the banana. Finally add in remaining ingredients and blend until well-combined.

I was a bit reluctant to try greens in a smoothie, but a friend convinced me that you could not taste the greens. I made sure that I blended the greens very well in the hazelnut milk because I didn't want to get a random chunk of greens in my smoothie. To my surprise you honestly can not tell that you are drinking 2 cups of kale, which is awesome for those that don't care for greens because then you are getting all the great nutrients delivered in a pleasant way. I usually have a bunch of frozen fruit in the freezer and will just grab what looks appealing at the moment. I also usually have bananas in the freezer. When I buy a bunch and they start to get too ripe I throw them in the freezer for my smoothies. I like to add some nut butter for some protein. You can really just make this what you want. You really can't mess it up:)
