Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup kale sub for baby spinach if you don't like kale or want a milder tasting smoothie
  • 1 stalk celery
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 apple
  • 1 pear
  • ½ lemon peeled and de-seeded
  • 1 cup pineapple
  • 1 teaspoon spirulina powder
  • 1 cup water Add more if it's too thick
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Once the bananas are ripe and just starting to get spots, peel them and place them in a ziploc bag or freezer friendly tupperware container and freeze overnight.
  • Add the kale and celery to the blender first with the water. I like to blend this first, since they're the most fibrous. Nobody likes a chunky smoothie
  • Add the rest of the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. It helps the blender to break the frozen banana up a little bit before blending. If it's too thick, add more water. This also tastes good with a splash of apple or orange juice, or dairy free strawberry yogurt.

Notes

Store in the fridge in an airtight mason jar for up to 4 days.
Sometimes I love adding splashes of orange or apple juice, or dairy free strawberry yogurt. 
Sometimes I also add frozen berries. 
If you want a milder tasting smoothie, use baby spinach instead of kale.
