Recipe Notes

When making a smoothie, you may also want to add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil for the nutrient and blood sugar stabilizing benefits. You can always substitute collard greens, chard or any other leafy green for kale.    You may also choose to add organic chia seeds and/or freshly ground flax seeds to benefit from the additional omega 3 fatty acids and fiber.   If you are using chia seeds or ground flax seeds, add them after you finish blending the vegetables.
