Blueberry Kefir Smoothie With Greens image

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.

I love that this smoothie is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your own taste. I like to add a scoop of protein powder for an extra boost of protein.

This smoothie is a great way to use up leftover fruit and vegetables. I always have a few blueberries and bananas that are about to go bad, so I just throw them in the smoothie and they're gone.

I love that this smoothie is made with kefir. Kefir is a fermented milk drink that's packed with probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria that support gut health.

I love the combination of flavors in this smoothie. The blueberries and bananas are sweet, the spinach and kale add a bit of bitterness, and the kefir gives it a tangy flavor.
