Kalevocado Kick Green Smoothie
Ingredients:
- 2 handfuls kale
- ½ an avocado
- ½ a cucumber
- 1 pear, cored
- ¼ cup strawberries
- 1-2 dates or 1 tsp honey (to taste, for sweetness)
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1/4 cup water
- Optional: a few ice cubes, to desired consistency
- 1 scoop of Daily Detox for an extra health boost and to support your detox pathways
Substitutions:
If kale isn’t your jam, feel free to substitute your favorite dark, leafy greens! Swiss chard and spinach work great here.
Tip: if you are using fresh strawberries instead of frozen, I suggest adding a little bit of ice to your smoothie to thicken it up and to get it nice and cold.
Directions:
- Add liquids first. You’re going to start by adding the water to your high speed blender first. Adding the liquid first helps to make the other ingredients blend much faster
- Add softer ingredients. Add the kale, avocado, cucumber, pear, dates (or honey), sea salt, and Daily Detox. If you are using fresh berries instead of frozen, add them here.
- Frozen ingredients or ice. Add frozen strawberries (if using) and ice.
- Cover with lid and blend. Turn your blender on – the best part is, if you have a high powdered blender such as a Vitamix, it whips smoothies together in seconds.
- Enjoy!
