Green Almond Milk Smoothie

IMG_95733 We’ve all tried making a smoothie, and there are so many ways of making one fruits, veggies, milk and so on. There are so many people out there that like to experiment with this but there are also the majority of you who don’t.

You go to your grocery store and most people go for the easy pick, the pre-cut frozen smoothie mixes, i know i used to. When you get home you throw it in the mixer along with milk or yoghurt, some people even add sugar. My friend made me a smoothie once that had tons of sugar in it, and to top it all of she then added a big dash of whipped cream on top, yuck!

Then there are the people who like to add green’s in their IMG_9574smoothies, like we do! YUM! When i first started making green juice or green smoothies, people would look at me like “what is she doing”, but then they had a taste and i could tell their mind was racing trying to figure out all the different flavors and why this drink tastes so good, when all you have is raw fruits and vegetables.

My absolute favorite ingredient is Kale, it’s packed with all kinds of vitamin’s, iron, nutrients, calcium the list goes on!  We’ll post All you need to know about Kale later today, but now i wanna tell you about this smoothie!
