Angie's Green Monster

Good Morning! If you are friends with me on facebook, you have probably seen me post about my new fascination with Green Monsters. And you also probably though, Angie...Drinking a green SMOOTHIE!?!?! NO WAY.

Way.
Totally.
:)

Ingredients:
1 small apple, cored and diced
1 small banana, sliced and frozen
3 stalks of kale (but just the leafy parts!)
1/2 cup milk, slightly frozen ( i put mine in the freezer for about 30 minutes)
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon of PB2
a few drops of vanilla flavoring


So from what I had read, you put the greens in first, then I added the milk, banana, apple, pb2, vanilla and water. Blend it up using the smoothie setting on your blender, you can drop in a few ice cubes if you want :)

and PRESTO!


Now if you KNOW me, you know I wouldn't tell you that it was tasty if it wasn't :) But I was surprised. The Banana flavor really come through the most.

Aint it purdy? :)
I do suggest drinking it after blending it, unless you want to blast it back through the mixer a few more times as it will start to settle as it sits.

2 PointsPlus!

So go out and do your thang. lol.

  2. My mom does a green smoothie in the morning too! I'm not sure all that her's has in it, but I know she uses the "naked" juice....and I'm pretty sure it has kale in it too! She said with the naked juice the pineapple comes through a lot! ~Laura Burch
