Lacinato Kale Pineapple Garden Smoothie
4.8(577 ratings)Kale can taste grassy and harsh when blended carelessly, but stripping the tough ribs and massaging the leaves for a minute softens the bitterness noticeably. Pineapple brings acidity, apple adds crisp sweetness, and a thin coin of fresh ginger keeps the finish warm. Pick the smallest, most tender leaves from the garden or market bunch for the smoothest result.
