Kale is loaded with protein. Add more of it. Use an orange instead of orange juice. I’m sure you’ll get your fats from somewhere else. Otherwise if this is all you are eating add 1 tablespoon of Canola or Olive oil to it.
"Almost No protein"?? So much protein in kale and spinach.
Jenna – great suggestion on adding those particular nuts for protein and healthy fats. I will say that not ALL protein powders are "processed junk"…probably 80% on the market are junk. A little too much fruit in this one for me, I’d cut it in half and go from there…
Thank you so much for sharing the recipie. I love not having to think about how to change up the flavors a little when I make my green smoothies. Have a great day! I like to add a little bit of zest with a strip of orange peel.
don’t use canola ….it is GMO
