Beet Blueberry Kale Smoothie


                         beetBerry

Kale smoothies have become very popular. Dr. Oz and even Lauren Conrad are fans of them. Since summer is right around the corner and every one's getting bikini ready I figured a post about kale was appropriate. Some of you may not know that kale is a super vegetable. Its packed with vitamins K,C and calcium. Personally kale is one of my favorite veggies.

This Beet Blueberry Kale Smoothie I stumbled across on Kale Smoothies.com is delicious and easy to prepare. Posted by Paul Ahern this is a great alternative to drinking grass. Lets just say a shot of grass first thing in the morning was anything but tasty.
