Coconut milk is rich in healthy fats, which helps curb your appetite and give you energy. The berries and cherries lower the glycemic index making it a great after dinner treat. This Healthy Cherry Smoothie is a great breakfast.
Ingredients
1
cup
kale
1
cup
coconut milk
canned or carton
1
cup
cherries
½
cup
blueberries
Instructions
Blend
kale and coconut milk together until smooth.
Add
remaining fruit and blend again.
Notes
Use at least one frozen fruit to make the smoothie cold or serve over ice.
Can substitute cherries + blueberries with any berries or a mixed berry blend.
Swap out the kale with another leafy green like spinach.
Use canned coconut milk for a creamier smoothie with healthy fat, use carton coconut milk for a lighter smoothie with less healthy fat.
