A few days ago I decided to add a little twist to a fruit smoothie that we all really like. This was my only day making something new to eat/drink for the week. I have been sick with a cold and am not up to planning and cooking new dinners. So easy and quick dinners have been the deal for this last week. Still home made though :).
Now for the fruit smoothie, I cut up fresh strawberries, cherries, blueberries, added some frozen berry/cherry mix (with raspberries, blackberries and blueberries) added enough peach, mango and orange juice to sweeten it up a bit and make it more juice like. I then added some fresh kale chopped small (about 2 medium leaves). Put it all into the blender and mixed it until it was liquid.
I have never made this juice with kale but was curious to see how it would taste.
It was delicious! The kids were not happy when there was no more left. :) Success! It was really very good, for those who would like to add some veggies to their children's diets this is a good start. We eat kale often but none of us could taste it in this juice. The trick is to put a lot more fruit than veggies into the juice. If you add too much fruit and it's not fluid enough just add a bit more OJ.
Hope you enjoy it.
