When people say they make protein smoothies, that's great, but why not take it up a notch and make it a green protein smoothie? By green, I mean spinach or kale. Trust me, it doesn't taste gross ;) It's my go to breakfast most days because it's quick, easy, and portable. There are endless flavor combinations (much like the protein balls), but here is one of my favorites: the Chocolate Pumpkin Kale Smoothie.
Add almond milk, kale, banana, pumpkin, chocolate protein powder, cinnamon, and ice to blender
Blend
End result
Pumpkin Kale Smoothie
Ingredients:
-1/2 cup almond milk
-1/2 - 1 scoop protein powder
-1/2 tsp cinnamon/pumpkin spice powder
-2 bunches kale (use less if this is your first time)
-3 cubes pumpkin (I freeze pumpkin puree into ice cube trays)
-1/2 frozen banana
-4 cubes ice
*Note: add more ice/frozen fruit to make smoothie thicker. Add more almond milk/water to thin smoothie out.
Directions:
Add everything to a blender. Blend. Drink and enjoy.
