Karen’s breakfast smoothie

When I set forward my New Year’s resolution to once and for all resolve my feelings about kale, Karen, iRun’s Endorphin Junkie, sent me the following recipe. I don’t usually have smoothies in the morning but I thought I’d give it a whirl this morning. Sadly, the kale that I had purchased with such good intentions on my last grocery trip was past its prime so my adventures in kale consumption will be delayed.

Ingredients

1 cup water

1/2 cup cottage cheese (I used Greek yogurt instead)

huge handful frozen strawberries (I used frozen raspberries instead)

1/2 frozen banana

dollop of peanut butter

handful of kale (I used spinach)

Directions: Place ingredients in blender and blend.
