Easy Breakfast Recipes With Kale

This kale avocado smoothie recipe is a fantastic way to start your day out right!  While kale isn’t traditionally consumed for breakfast, this recipe makes it easy to get your greens in first thing in the morning. I add plenty of fruit (you can use fresh or frozen) to sweeten this smoothie naturally. Only good-for-you whole ingredients go into this smoothie, making it a great way to rise & shine!

What’s In This Green Avocado Smoothie Recipe?

I cook with fresh produce from my garden and from Misfits Market– they sell fantastic fruit, vegetables, & pantry staples at a discounted price. We get Misfit boxes every other week and love picking out favorite produce for delivery. Get $10 off your first box here!

• Avocado, Kale, Pineapple 

• Plant-Based Vanilla Protein Powder – of all the protein powders in the world, this vanilla protein powder is one my absolute favorite!  It’s simple, has just 4 ingredients, and tastes amazing with fruit smoothies. It’s not chalky and contains tons of plant protein to keep you going throughout the day!
• Banana: add 1 banana or some of this great banana powder. When we don’t have fresh bananas, adding a tablespoon of this banana powder to every smoothie has been a great way to get nutrition in.
• Flaxseed: I always add a scoop in my smoothies.
• Water
• Ice

The Best Blender for the Job

I’ve owned a lot of blenders, but my high-speed Vitamix blender is definitely the best one I’ve owned. This appliance will blend even the toughest of ingredients (frozen fruit, anyone?) into pulp.  I prefer using my blender to my food processor for sauces or homemade hummus, as it’s much easier to clean out the Vitamix. This is definitely one kitchen appliance we use on a daily basis, if not twice a day!

Frozen Fruit Recipes For the Win!

I used frozen pineapple and banana in this smoothie instead of fresh. By using freezer ingredients, I can stock up when they are on sale, and use them in all kinds of great dishes. It saves me a trip to the store, and I can have frozen fruit to use in smoothies in no time. Check out all my recipes that use Freezer Ingredients on The Herbeevore – great for those days when you want a meal ready fast! And check out my Top 125 Plant-Based Pantry Staples for long-lasting staples that I always keep on hand.

If you grow  kale in your garden, you can cut the leaves, wash them, and put them in an airtight bag to freeze. That way you can enjoy frozen greens in your recipes and smoothies all year long!

How Do I Make A Green Smoothie with Avocado?

1. Add all ingredients to a high speed blender.
2. Blend on low, and increase speed until all fruit/ice chunks are blended and the smoothie is a creamy consistency.
3. Pour into your favorite glass, sit back, and enjoy!

Dietary Modifications

• This recipe is vegan and gluten free – if you are adding a protein powder, make sure it keeps with any dietary modifications you require. I like a vegan and gluten free orange and ginger protein for this smoothie, if I’m adding a powder!
