I LOVE this recipe!!!!!! I initially thought this would be vile.. honestly it's green and well who would think kale could be masked in a smoothie... but it's GREAT!!. It may not be for everyone but it's a great way to get in nutrients especially on a low calorie diet or VLCD. It comes out a bright green and no juicer is required just a blender. This recipe was featured in Woman's World magazine. I usually use 1 tbs Chia seed powder and Mandarine oranges and 1 cup Kale
