- 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
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.
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.
