How to Make Banana Kale Smoothie

  1. Add the sliced banana, kale, almond milk, mango chunks (if using), chia seeds (if using), and honey/maple syrup (if using) to your high-powered blender.
  2. Secure the lid and blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until completely smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.
  3. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired. Add more liquid for thinner consistency if needed.
  4. Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
