Kale And Mango Breakfast Smoothie
Kale and Mango Smoothie
Kale And Mango Breakfast Smoothie. Let’s talk about a Kale Smoothie – one that’s Healthy And Delicious. So if you planted Kale in your garden this spring, and planted an over-abundant of them like I have, then you’re going to need something to do with all these wonderful healthy kale leaves as one cannot live on salads alone. You can make kale chips, (check out these 3 Kale Chip recipes), and you can also make Green Smoothies – Kale Smoothies to be exact. Once you add in all the other fruits and vegetables into the mix, not only are you getting a chockful of nutrients and vitamins (including all their benefits), you’re also getting a healthy, filling breakfast or even a late afternoon snack. And most importantly … one that tastes delicious.
But why Kale? Kale contains fiber, antioxidants, calcium, vitamin K – it’s also a good source of vitamin C and iron. One cup of raw kale contains even more vitamin C than an orange! Learn more about why it’s called KALE IS KING and the Health Benefits of Kale.
So for this smoothie, grab a handful of kale, a mango, a couple of dates, a lemon, some seeds, a bit of ginger (if you like the flavor), and whip this puppy up today. Guaranteed to make you feel great, hydrated, and give you that much needed boost of energy – plus it’s low in calories.
Bottoms up and enjoy 🙂
