Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large, peeled and sliced Banana
- 1 cup, tightly packed, destemmed and chopped Kale
- 1 cup Frozen mixed berries
- 1.5 cups, unsweetened Almond milk
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Hemp protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Peanut butter
- 2 pitted Medjool date
- 0.5 teaspoon, optional Spirulina powder
- 3 Ice cubes
Instructions
Begin by ensuring all produce is washed thoroughly. Peel the banana and slice it for easy blending.
Add the almond milk to a high-speed blender, followed by the banana slices.
Incorporate the kale by removing the stems and roughly chopping the leaves before adding them to the blender.
Measure and add one cup of frozen mixed berries to the mixture for natural sweetness and an antioxidant boost.
Sprinkle in the chia seeds for fiber and healthy fats.
Add two tablespoons of hemp protein powder to enhance the smoothie’s protein content.
Include one tablespoon of peanut butter for added creaminess and protein.
Pit the Medjool dates and add them in for natural sweetness.
If you'd like an extra nutrient boost, add half a teaspoon of spirulina powder, but this is optional.
Finish by adding three ice cubes for a refreshing chill.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides if necessary.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if needed by adding another date or a splash of maple syrup, though this is optional.
Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
