A few days ago ... Ripe banana + soy milk about to expire + peanut butter about to expire + blender = smoothie time! I needed my "green" for the day, so I threw in two kale leaves as well. That is how Peanut Butter Banana Soy Smoothie transformed into Green Smoothie. The concoction may sound unappealing but boy was it delicious; I barely tasted a hint of raw kale, which is good because the leafy veggie tastes absolutely disgusting on its own. Thank goodness to Lina for introducing me to the world of green smoothies!
This post contains the original Peanut Butter Banana Soy Smoothie Recipe. Below is my recipe for the green version. Not only is this smoothie a great source of vitamins A and K (both from the kale), but it is also packed with vitamin C (kale & banana), protein (soy & peanut butter), potassium (banana), and more.
