My favorite breakfast!
Ingredients:
1 quarter to 1 half fresh pineapple
3 leaves of Kale - I use deep green "dino" kale, deveined
1 ripe banana (can use
frozen)
4 fresh mint leaves, optional-to taste
1 quarter to 1 half inch of fresh ginger root (can use dry), to taste
2 to 4 cups water
Preparation:
This makes from 32 to 64 fl oz.
Place all ingredients in blender.
Start out with only enough water to cover everything about half-way (allows it to blend to a creamy consistancy)
After all creamy, add more water to get to the thickness you prefer
YUMMY!
NOW, DRINK UP!!!
Except for the color, which is an intense green if you use dino kale, you would never know it had greens in it !! Your body will love you for it !!

Cool! I am so happy to share something! I don't have any raw foodies around here to try stuff on, so this is great!

Christine, this recipe is absolutely delicious. The first smoothie I have made that is actually, well, smooth and creamy! I thought I had kale on hand, but realized it was chard in the middle of making the recipe, so I used the chard anyhow and it was still wonderful. The smoothie is such a pretty green that I'm sending you a picture in case you'd like to post it.
