A creamy and nutritious kale, spinach, and avocado green smoothie recipe, mixed with fresh fruit, for a refreshing energy boost.
Kale and spinach are two of my favorite vegetables to add to my smoothie recipes, because of their strong nutritional benefits but also because of their somewhat neutral flavors.

Preparing a nutritious smoothie that not only tastes good but also has that perfect texture is not as easy as it may seem.

One of the easiest and quickest ways to get your nutrients in is by regularly preparing a delicious smoothie with fruits, vegetables and extra ingredients.
