More Fruit and Vegetable Smoothies

We have been having lots of fun making smoothies. Here are a few more combinations we have come up with.


Blueberry/Plum/Kale
3 cups water or carrot juice
12 dates
1 cup kale, stems removed
4 cups chopped plums (6 whole)
1 banana
1 cup blueberries


Blend the water and dates first to ensure there are no chunks in the bottom.
Blend all ingredients with date mixture until smooth.
Refrigerate or serve.
*This needed extra dates for sweetness because the plums were not sweet.
