Blueberry Chia Smoothie

1/2 banana (optionally frozen)
2 kale leaves, stemmed
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup almond milk, unsweetened
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp chia seeds

Blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender. This is better to drink while fresh, for the most benefit.  Can be served with strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries.

Another smoothie for the win!  I used all frozen ingredients, including spinach, which I substituted for the kale.  I also used plain Greek yogurt instead of almond milk and threw in a few frozen strawberries I had in the freezer.  The results was a creamy, frozen-yogurt-like smoothie which was delicious!

Yum!  Very delicious smoothie.  I accidentally used a whole banana.  Instead of almond milk I used some Greek yogurt and regular milk, and added a tablespoon of almond butter.  Great smoothie!
