Instructions:

1. Prepare the Apples:
- Wash the apples thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticides.

2. Prepare the Kale:

3. Juicing Method:
- Using a Juicer:
- Feed the apple pieces and kale into the juicer chute, alternating between the two to ensure even mixing.

4. Blending Method:
- Using a Blender:
- Place the chopped apples and kale into the blender.
- Add a small amount of water (about ½ cup) to help with blending.

Tips:

- Choose organic apples if possible to reduce exposure to pesticides.
