Green smoothies have been going strong for quite some time, earning themselves a reputation as one of the healthiest foods on the market. Kale smoothies fall under this category, but not everyone enjoys their taste. If you’re struggling to make your kale smoothies delicious, these useful tips will get you there.

Baby Kale

The tricky thing about kale is that it can give your smoothies a bitter flavor. You can avoid this mistake by picking the right type of kale for your smoothies, and giving baby kale a shot if the stalks of regular kale aren’t doing it for you.

Ditch Kale Stems

Not all parts of kale are created equal, especially when it comes to using them in your smoothies. Kale stems are best left unused because they’re too tough and fibrous to be properly blended, and they won’t do the flavor of your smoothies any good.

Right Ingredients

You can benefit from the healthy properties of kale without making it the main ingredient in your smoothies. You can mask their bitter flavor by opting for sweeter ingredients, such as banana, pineapple, and mango, which will perfectly balance it out. Using honey, non-fat Greek yogurt, and peanut butter to make your smoothies extra creamy and tasty is also an option.

Smoothies are a great place to “hide” vegetables which can make them even healthier than they are with just fruit and yogurt. In fact, you often won’t even be able to taste them if you know how to add them just right.

Here are some great ideas for vegetables that will give your smoothies a nutritional boost without overwhelming their flavor.

Kale

This superfood might seem bitter and like an odd choice for smoothies, but the reality is that if you add it in a correct proportion, you will reap all of its nutritional benefits without affecting taste. Combine it with sweet fruits that will counteract its natural bitterness.

Spinach

Spinach is a classic smoothie addition. Its high vitamin content and inoffensive taste means that it can blend in well into almost any type of smoothie. We love combining it with bananas and strawberries.

Carrots

Carrots have a relatively neutral taste with a bit of sweetness, making them a great addition to smoothies. Cut them up and combine them with other similarly-colored fruits like mango and peaches, and you won’t even realize that they’re there!
