Equipment

high-speed blender

Ingredients

1 cup kale
1 cup coconut water unsweetened
½ orange
½ cup pineapple
½ banana
1 tablespoon chia seeds

Instructions

Place kale, orange and coconut water in blender. Puree until smooth.
Add remaining fruit and blend again until smooth.

Notes

Remove the stems of the kale to help with the bitter taste. You can also use baby kale.
Swap kale out with the leafy green of your choice.
Blend in the chia seeds or sprinkle on top for a crunchy texture.
For a lower sugar smoothie, swap the banana with 1/4 of an avocado.
