The weather is still warm here for a bit longer and my daughter has been loving our homemade "ice-smoothies" as she calls them, so I thought I would share our recipe for them. We often drink green smoothies for breakfast so I just froze them and they make an awesome treat packed with great nutrients and delicious too! Adding and avocado makes it extra creamy and a little less icy than if you just freeze liquids so I really love having it in there. Of course you can add/subtract whatever you like but I find this balance to be not too sweet but still fruity and cooling.
Creamy Green Popsicles
2 leaves kale (aproximately 2 cups)
1 cup organic spinach
1 avocado
1 cup coconut milk (canned is creamier)
1 apple (sliced, cored)
3 clementine oranges
1 cup mango
2 Tbsp ground chia seeds
1 tsp Spirulina powder
Blend all ingredients in your blender until smooth. Pour into Ice Pop Molds and freeze upright for a few hours or overnight.
If you have leftovers, enjoy as a smoothie!
