Raspberry & Ginger Smoothie

Earlier this year I did a 30 day smoothie challenge through Young and Raw. I’m not going to lie, I didn’t make it through the whole 30 days, but I did find some awesome recipes that I still continue to enjoy. The Raspberry & Ginger smoothie works for me because I keep most of the ingredients on hand. Also – this recipe is 4 year old & husband approved, which isn’t always the case at my house. 🙂

This smoothie is adapted from Young and Raw’s, Warming Blueberry & Ginger smoothie (also good).

The Raspberry & Ginger Smoothie

• 1 cup of frozen raspberries
• 1 frozen banana
• 1 handful of kale
• 1 inch piece of ginger
• 1 cup of coconut water (I only use Harmless Harvest 100% raw coconut water)
• 1 tablespoon of chia seeds

Add all ingredients to a blender & blend*.

*If you have a high-power blender (Vitamix or Blendtec) you should only have to blend for about 45-60 seconds. If you are using a standard blender (total fine), you will need to blend longer & may need to add some water.

Enjoy!
