This is an easy way to get raw kale into your diet. The grapes masks the taste of kale and the end result is a tasty, cool smoothie!

Only 2 ingredients make for a very tasty smoothie! I'd recommend only making this if your grapes are on the sweeter side since grapes' tartness can vary quite a bit. Mine were slightly tart so my first sip was slightly sour and kinda caught me off guard but overall I'd def make this again because of it's ease. The grapes didn't completely mask the kale flavor for me but I love kale so it's not an issue. Read More

It looked so simple I was hoping it would have worked well to incorporate more kale into the diet. I always find it a difficult green to mask in a smoothie un like spinach. I was able to doctor it up with other fruits though so not a waste. ty Read More

I enjoyed the smoothie it just wasn't exactly as sweet as i thought it would be. That being said I added 1 cup of sliced strawberries to the mix. It is awesome!! Even my 1 year old enjoys sipping it with me. Read More
