Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups unsweetened non-dairy milk I used almond
- 2 cups spinach packed
- 1 cup kale stems removed and packed
- 1 cup frozen mango
- 1 cup frozen peaches
- ½ cup cashews
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender, and turn onto low, until the mixture begins to come together.
- Turn the blender off, and scrape down the sides of the blender. Turn the blender back on, gradually turning to high speed.
- Blend for 5 minutes, or until smooth. If needed, add ¼ - ½ cup water to the blender.
- Divide the smoothie mixture between two cups and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- You can substitute frozen mango easily for frozen strawberries.
- While you can use any kind of milk, I typically find that regular milk makes smoothies too frothy. I personally use almond milk or oat milk in all my smoothies!
- Chia seeds are completely optional. They don’t really change the taste or texture when the smoothie is fully blended, but add a nice nutritional punch!
