Equipment

  • 1 Blender
  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 Set of measuring cups & spoons
  • 2 Serving Bowls
  • 1 Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups kale stems removed and roughly chopped
  • 1 cup frozen mango
  • ½ frozen banana
  • ½ avocado
  • 2 tablespoons creamy almond butter or nut butter of choice
  • 2 teaspoons Nature Nate’s honey
  • ½ –¾ cup water adjust for desired thickness
  • Toppings of choice: sliced fruits nuts, unsweetened shredded coconut, granola, hemp or chia seeds

Instructions
 

  • Prep the Ingredients: Begin by washing the kale thoroughly, removing all stems, and roughly chopping the leaves into bite-sized pieces to ensure easy blending.
    Peel the banana and scoop out the avocado flesh, and gather frozen mango chunks, almond butter, honey, and water in one convenient area to streamline the blending process.
    Having all ingredients prepped ahead of time makes the recipe quick and efficient.
  • Blend the Base Smoothie: In a high-powered blender, add the chopped kale, frozen mango, banana, avocado, almond butter, honey, and ½ cup of water.
    Blend on high for 30–60 seconds until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides with a spatula if necessary, ensuring no leafy chunks remain.
    Adjust the consistency by gradually adding extra water until your desired thickness is reached.
  • Serve and Add Toppings: Pour the perfectly blended smoothie into serving bowls, creating a smooth, even base.
    Arrange your favorite toppings such as sliced fresh fruits, nuts, granola, shredded coconut, or seeds in an appealing pattern, adding both texture and flavor.
    Enjoy immediately to experience the vibrant taste and maintain the smoothie’s fresh, creamy consistency.

Notes

  • For best results, use frozen fruits to achieve a thick and creamy smoothie bowl texture.
  • Adjust water gradually to control the smoothie’s consistency—less water for thicker bowls, more for thinner blends.
  • Smoothie bowls are best consumed immediately for freshness, flavor, and optimal nutrient retention.
  • Substitute almond butter with any nut or seed butter, such as cashew or sunflower, to customize flavor or accommodate allergies.
  • Add toppings just before serving to maintain crunch and texture; fruits, seeds, and granola work exceptionally well.
