    Kale, Apple & Avocado Green Smoothie

    I've been wanting to try out making green smoothies for a while now, and it was super easy with my Vitamix.

    This was a great combination of flavors, but next time, I think I'll add a little ice, too, because it wasn't cold at all really when I drank it.

    My toddler saw me drinking it and came over and drank almost half of it in one giant gulp...so I guess it was a hit with him, too! Who knew? I'm looking forward to making variations on this in the future.

    Still thirsty? Try this green smoothie with mango, kale, avocado, and cucumber or this mango, apple, carrot, orange coconut smoothie.

        So glad you liked it! Green smoothies have a reputation for being boring and not very tasty, but it doesn't have to be that way! 🙂
