Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Spinach
- 1 cup Kale
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 2 stalks Celery
- 1 medium Carrot
- 1 medium Apple (green or red)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 inch Ginger (fresh, peeled)
- 1.5 cups Water
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Wash all produce thoroughly under cold running water.
Roughly chop the spinach, kale, cucumber, celery, carrot, and apple into manageable pieces for your blender or juicer.
If using a juicer, process all ingredients except water and ice cubes through the juicer, then stir in lemon juice. Transfer to glasses, add ice, and serve immediately.
If using a blender, add water to the blender first, followed by the spinach, kale, cucumber, celery, carrot, apple, lemon juice, and ginger. Blend on high until smooth.
To achieve a smoother texture in the blender method, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth if desired.
Add the ice cubes directly to the blender and pulse until the smoothie reaches your preferred consistency, or serve the smoothie over ice cubes in glasses.
Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately. Enjoy your refreshing salad smoothie!
