too much fat in nut butter!! i’ll leave that part out. otherwise it sounds good!
Just a question…why steam the kale? Why not just consume it in it’s raw form? Also, on the coconut “Juice”. How about adding actual coconut water and the coconut flesh…MAN! I find that is deelish in a smoothie!
We steam the kale so we can fit more in the blender….and have a personal preference on the taste which is less bitter. Good for you for going for it raw! Definitely better in its raw form.
Made this just now for dinner. I used 1 cup of canned kale (it’s what I had on hand). I don’t know of any young kids who would like the looks of it, but I can guess the brave ones would try it
