Makes 1 Green Power Smoothie
Ingredients
1 cup packed kale leaves, stems removed
1 cup packed spinach leaves
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 green apple, cored and diced
1/2 cucumber
1/2 cup filtered water
1 tbsp unsweetened protein powder
3 ice cubes*
Instructions
- Cut the cucumber in quarters lengthwise then slice off the inner corner of each one to remove the seeds. Roughly chop it then add to the blender along with the remaining ingredients.
- Blend on high until smooth, transfer to a glass and enjoy!
** Spinach is much easier to drink in smoothie form than the kale so feel free to replace it with additional spinach. If you’d like to make this a green juice, simply leave out the ice. Use a fine mesh strainer (with a spatula to help it along) or a nut milk bag to separate the pulp. **
