Toddler Friendly Kale Smoothie
There's a juice and smoothie shop by our house that makes the Most Delicious kale smoothie.
However there's a couple things wrong with it, the first being its made with a pineapple yoghurt , (I'm allergic to dairy) and the second being its $9 I just can't justify spending that much on a smoothie I could make myself.
So I watched them make it one day and took note of the ingredients and after a little trial and error and replacing the yoghurt with a ripe banana I do believe I've made it even better. Actually I know I made it better, and the best part is I can make a weeks work of smoothies for just a few dollars more than just one smoothie from the juice shop!
The Ingredients:
Two handfuls of organic kale
About 5-7 pieces of chopped pineapple
And about 3/4 a cup of papaya nectar (add more or less to taste)
Instructions:
Add all ingredients into your blender and blend until juice like in texture. Then add ice and blend again until you've reached a smoothie consistency.
(Because this is kind of a thick smoothie make sure that however your blender is set up, that you add the ingredients to blend in this order; Kale, banana, then pineapple. It will make blending much smoother!)
Theo absolutely LOVES this smoothie, it's getting to the point where I'm going to have to start making him his own if I want to have some too HAHA
So if you have kiddos, whip one of these up and let them try it out!
Enjoy!!
