I don’t know of an easier way to get more greens into our diets then to enjoy a green smoothie.  It’s a really great option for adding greens without cooking that requires minimal time and effort.

This recipe combines kale, cranberries, orange, and banana—it’s like a green smoothie for the holidays!

I think this one would make a great breakfast on Thanksgiving morning.

      I don’t think dried cranberries will work for this. Maybe you can try a different fruit like raspberries or strawberries.

    I love this recipe! Made it last year and have been unable to because couldn’t get fresh cranberries. Now that they are available, can’t wait to make again. I don’t have kale in the refridge today, so going to try with spinach. Thanks Dani!
