Green Smoothie

  • Level: Easy
  • Yield: 2 large servings or 4 small servings
  • Total: 10 min
  • Prep: 10 min
When making a smoothie like this, I use recipes as a guide to proportions. You don't have to be super precise. If you add a few more grapes, don't worry about it. In the end it's all going to be juice! Don't be afraid to adjust the flavors adding more or less of what you like best. Drink up and stay healthy!

Ingredients

1 cup peeled and coarsely chopped cucumber

1 cup Tuscan kale, coarsely chopped

1/2 cup to 1 cup green grapes, frozen

1/3 cup ice

1/4 cup picked fresh parsley leaves

Juice of 1 lemon

1/2 green apple, cored and coarsely chopped

Directions

  1. Add the cucumber, kale, grapes, ice, parsley, lemon juice and apples to the carafe of a powerful blender. Blend on high until everything is homogeneous and smooth, adding 1 to 2 cups water as needed.
  2. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Cook’s Note

If you do not have a high powered blender, be sure to add greens on the bottom and pulse to combine before running the blender continuously.
