    Creamy Kale Avocado Smoothie

    Today I'm sharing my favorite midday snack, Creamy Kale Avocado Smoothie. I make this almost every day, with slight variations depending on what I have on hand. But its a tasty, healthy treat that I find myself going back to again and again. Even my little 7 month old loves it. And that's definitely a win :).

    What goes into this creamy kale avocado smoothie:

    • 1 Banana
    • ½ Avocado
    • 1 Pear
    • ½ inch piece fresh ginger (optional, but adds a nice spicy kick)
    • ½ to ⅓ cup almond, coconut, or low-fat cow's milk
    • 2 heaping cups chopped kale

    Variations and endless in smoothie recipes, and this one is no different. If you want to add extra protein, try a few tablespoons of chia seeds. If you want to make this smoothie more filling, add in ¼ cup rolled oats.

    My favorite milk with this smoothie is probably coconut milk. It's just hard to beat the creaminess of full fat coconut milk. But it does add a little coconut flavor, so if that's not your thing, choose a different liquid! Almond milk is always great with smoothies, too. Lately, I have been using 2% cow's milk just because that's what I have on hand, but really any milk will work.

    Ingredients

    Sometimes green smoothies can look dull or even a yucky brown color. It doesn't scream appetizing. But this creamy kale avocado smoothie is different in that it is so vibrant and beautiful.

    Look at that beautiful color:
