How to make the apple celery kiwi kale gereen smoothie
Stuff in the kale vegetable into the Nutribullet jar. You may be able to add all of the 120 g of the kale in at once but add as much as the jar can take in the first instance.
Add milk and blitz it. The idea is to reduce the kale.
Pause the Nutribullet and add the 2nd batch of the remaining Kale. Blitz again and pause it.
Now slice in your apples, celery and kiwi. Blitz again for 40 seconds.
You may need to add the apple, celery and kiwi, one at a time to achieve reduction with each blitz.
Now add the flaxseeds and the natural yogurt (low fat) and blitz for another 40 seconds
That’s it. Your apple celery kiwi kale green smoothie is ready.
