BLUEBERRY KEFIR SMOOTHIE WITH GREENS

This green smoothie is really more blue than green, as the color of the blueberries predominates. But the greens are there, so in my mind it's still a green drink. Half a banana wasn't quite enough to punch up the flavor of the drink, but I found that a whole banana did the trick. I used a baby greens mix that included baby kale, chard (red and green), and spinach.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth and creamy smoothie, use frozen kefir and frozen blueberries. If using fresh berries, be sure to freeze them for at least 2 hours before blending.
  • For a thicker smoothie, add more kefir or yogurt. For a thinner smoothie, add more water or milk.
  • Feel free to add other fruits and vegetables to your smoothie, such as bananas, spinach, or kale. You can also add a scoop of protein powder or a tablespoon of peanut butter for an extra boost of protein.
  • If you don't have kefir on hand, you can use yogurt or milk instead. However, kefir contains beneficial probiotics that yogurt and milk do not, so it is the best choice for this smoothie.
  • Kefir smoothies are a great way to get your daily dose of fruits, vegetables, and probiotics. They are also a delicious and refreshing way to start your day or refuel after a workout.
