My review
Kale Orange Banana Smoothie
Georgina
"Sometimes it tastes like Fruit Loops® cereal, but, of course, this is actually good for you. My 14-month-old loves this for breakfast. Furthermore, he can feed himself (with a sippy cup) while I make breakfast and lunch for the older kids. The texture is similar to pudding. If runnier texture is desired, add ice or milk."

This was delicious! I used two cups of fresh spinach in place of the kale.

The flavor of this is really good. However, I do think it needs added ice (or use frozen bananas). I made the recipe as-is (except I used oat milk in place of water, and added a spoonful of chia...

Like a couple of the other reviewers, I needed a way to incorporate kale into my diet...and this smoothie recipe fits the bill! The banana and orange flavors tame the bitterness of kale, and th...

I've been trying to add some kale to our diets. This is a great way to use it as it takes the bitterness away. I've made this recipe twice now. First time as written, and it was good but thic...

I was surprised, but I thought this tasted good. I only had 1/2 orange, so I halved the other ingredients but accidentally kept the water amount the same. I think it was a good mistake, because ...

Love this smoothie! One of my morning favorites. I used spinach instead of kale and the orange unpeeled. I've even added pineapple to the mix.
