Thanksgiving is just around the corner, but not all the sexy stars will be enjoying turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes. Actress Natalie Portman stays fit and sexy eating a vegetarian diet, which would include the healthiest vegetable on the planet - the great kale.
Kale is low in calories, but high in calcium, vitamin A, C, and K. Kale is also rich in minerals, like iron, potassium, and copper. Consuming antioxidant rich kale may reduce your risk of developing cancer, and aid in normal blood clotting, to name a few of kale's health benefits. Sounds good to me! Some people do not like the taste of raw kale, but frozen raw kale can create a more palatable texture like I used in this kale smoothie recipe. Its quick and easy to make and it will keep you feeling full until lunch time.
Frozen Kale Smoothie Recipe:
• 1 Cup Frozen packed Kale
• 1/2 Cup Frozen Blueberries
• 1 Cup Unsweetened Almond milk
• 1 Scoop "Raw Protein" or "Raw Fit Protein"
Pour 1 measured cup of unsweetened almond milk in a blender. Measure half of your frozen kale (1/2 cup) and place in the blender and blend until smooth.
Add 1 scoop of "Raw Protein powder" into the blender and blend until the powder is completed blended in and smooth.
Add the second 1/2 cup of the frozen kale and blend until smooth. Blending half of the frozen kale at a time allows the mixture to blend thoroughly and prevents the blades from freezing.
Add 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries and blend all the ingredients until smooth. If the consistency is too thick add ice cold water and blend until perfectly smooth to your taste. Enjoy the healthy taste and your glowing skin! after a month of these filling smoothies.
