Designing the Life: A Blog by Uma Stewart and Friends

my life: smoothie green anyone?

We’ve decided to launch our own color of the year, called “Smoothie Green.” This is inspired by the yummy Avocado Apple Kale Smoothies I’ve been making with my new smoothie blender. My 4 year old son loves these served as pictured here in a French juice glass we inherited from Grandma Stewart.

Here is the recipe:

Add the following ingredients to a blender and blend on high for 30 seconds.

  • 1-2 large kale leaves, center stems removed and chopped
  • 1 medium honey crisp apple, peeled, cored, and coarsely cut
  • 1/2 of a ripe avocado, cut in small pieces
  • fresh juice from 1/2 lime
  • 1/2 inch piece of ginger, peeled and cut into small pieces
  • 2 teaspoons of honey
  • 1/2 cup of water

Taste for sweetness! Add more water to thin if desired.
