    Fruit and Kale Smoothie

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    kale smoothie weight loss detox

    It is beginning to feel like spring which to me, means lots of fresh strawberries.  I seem to eat them daily during this time of year.  One of my favorite more treats is a berry kale smoothie.  It is just as easy to jump out of bed blend together a smoothie as it is to brew a cup of coffee.

    This has been my regular go-to smoothie.  It has kale in it.

    But, you can't taste it.  It blends up nicely and just adds a bit of texture. I once read that the kale acts as a little scrubber in your intestine to get all of the gunk out of the cracks and crevices.  For some reason, I like that idea that the kale is really cleaning out my insides.

    I have been making it for the kids and they are drinking it.  I don't try to hide the fact that there are veggies in here--and they get a kick out of drinking a kale smoothie--that tastes wonderful.

    It feels kind of silly to even include a recipe for this--it is so simple and can be adapted in many ways--but just in case you aren't sure how to start, here is my version:
