Cooking Tips
- Kale preparation: To ensure a smoother texture, remove the stems from the kale if they are particularly thick.
- Consistency adjustment: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more water or milk to reach your desired consistency. For a thicker smoothie, you can add more yogurt or use frozen blueberries.
- Flavour boost: For an extra flavour kick or to increase the smoothie's nutritional profile, consider adding a tablespoon of flaxseed or a small handful of nuts.
