Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients - Start by washing all your fresh produce. Remove the stems from the kale and mint, and chop the cucumber and fennel bulb (or celery) into smaller pieces for easier blending.
- Step 2: Combine Ingredients in Blender - In your blender, add the kale, fresh mint leaves, chopped avocado, fennel bulb (or celery), cucumber, protein powder, almond milk, almond butter, and lemon juice.
- Step 3: Blend Until Smooth - Secure the lid on your blender and blend on high speed until all the ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is blended evenly.
- Step 4: Adjust Consistency - If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a bit more almond milk to reach your desired consistency. Blend again for a few seconds.
- Step 5: Taste and Serve - Give your smoothie a taste and adjust sweetness or acidity if needed. Pour the smoothie into a serving glass, and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture!
Notes
- Always use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and maximum nutrients.
- Experiment with different greens like spinach or arugula for variety.
- If you enjoy a sweeter smoothie, consider adding a few drops of stevia or a small amount of low-carb sweetener.
- For an extra cooling effect, add a few ice cubes before blending.
