Lean Mean Green Smoothies All Day Errday

Last weekend I went to the groceries and found myself buying 4 huge bagfuls of kale because:
a) I'm a hoarder
b) I'm a sucker for sale specials
c) I need a detox. 

So, seeing as I won't be running out of kale anytime soon ... I've made it my own personal challenge to incorporate at least one green smoothie into my daily diet - everyday of course being a different one. 

Here's a few recipes (all servings of one) of the green smoothie combinations I've tried - with much success too.

APPLE KALE BANANA SMOOTHIE
1 frozen banana
1 large apple, chopped
1 cup kale leaves, washed
1 cup water


TROPICAL PINEAPPLE SMOOTHIE
1 cup frozen pineapple
2 cups kale leaves, washed
1/4 cup water, coconut water or pineapple juice

CREAMY KALE SMOOTHIE
1/3 cup coconut water
1 tablespoon PB2 (or nut butter)
1 frozen banana

1 cup kale leaves, washed
1 teaspoon maca (optional, but supercharges your day!)

PINE-BANANAPPLE SMOOTHIE
1/2 cup frozen pineapple
1 frozen banana
1 apple, chopped
1 cup kale leaves, washed
1/4 cup water
