If you have already discovered that Kale can taste a little too green when you add it to a Green Smoothie...here is one for you to try!

Mango Kiwi Kale GS

2 cups water
1 large Atoulfo Mango, peeled and seeded
1 banana, peeled
2 Kiwi fruit, peeled
Splash of fresh lemon juice
4 leaves of Kale

• Add first 5 ingredients to blender, blending into a liquid
• Remove and discard centre stem from Kale leaves - add remaining leaves to blender
• Blend all together until smooth
• The GS will be nice and thick - you can always add water to thin it out
• Fresh lemon juice counters too green a flavour - so always taste test and add more as needed
• This was made in a Vitamix blender which gives a velvety texture
• If using a regular blender some Kale bits may remain, try blending longer
