Yields 2 large glasses
My first green smoothie came from a recipe by my friend Roxane McNulty. She was one of the initial recipe authors on PlantBasedonaBudget.com, and this is one of my favorite contributions on the whole website. I’ve slightly modified the measurements to bump up the sweetness, but you can find her original version on the website. Thanks again, Roxane, for giving us a tasty, healthy breakfast staple!

TESTERS’ TIPS:
>>“If you don’t have a high-powered blender, blend the milk and kale together first to reduce any green chunks.” —Melanie S. from Warsaw, NY
