Recipe created by Ambitious Kitchen

We love Ambitious Kitchen’s refreshing pineapple kale smoothie made with five simple ingredients. This vegan smoothie makes for a wonderful, easy breakfast or snack. Creamy coconut milk gives it a delicious, tropical flavor you'll love. Thanks Monique!!

• 2 cups loosely packed kale, stems removed (or sub spinach)

• ½ tablespoon chia seeds
• ½ inch hunk fresh peeled ginger, optional

In a large high-powered blender, add in all ingredients and blend on high for 1-2 minutes or until all ingredients are well combined. If necessary, add in more milk to thin the smoothie
and blend again. Serves 1.
