Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the spinach, kale, strawberries, grapes, and celery thoroughly under cold running water.
- Peel the pear if desired, and cut it into smaller chunks to make blending easier.
- Roughly chop the celery stalk and the carrot into smaller pieces.
- Hull the strawberries if they have stems.
- Pour the 1/2 cup of water into the blender. This will help the ingredients blend better and create a smoother consistency.
- Add the 1/4 cup of spinach and the 1/4 cup of kale into the blender. It's best to add the leafy greens first so they blend more easily.
- Add the chopped pear, strawberries, grapes, celery, and carrot into the blender.
- Add the 10 ice cubes. The ice will give your smoothie a refreshing texture and keep it cold.
- Secure the lid on the blender, and start blending on a low setting. Gradually increase the speed to high.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and there are no visible chunks of fruit or vegetables. This may take around 1-2 minutes, depending on the power of your blender.
- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a bit more water, one tablespoon at a time, and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately. Enjoy your nutritious and refreshing Pear, Spinach, and Kale Green Smoothie!
Tips:
- Ensure all the ingredients are fresh for the best taste and maximum nutrients.
- Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly before blending.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a bit of honey or a ripe banana.
- For a creamier texture, you can substitute water with coconut water or almond milk.
- Blend the leafy greens and water first to minimize chunks and achieve a smoother texture.
- Gradually add ice cubes while blending to control the thickness of the smoothie according to your preference.
- Try freezing some of the fruits beforehand for an extra cold and refreshing smoothie.
