Discover the refreshing and nourishing magic of our collard green smoothie recipe. Packed with superfoods, polyphenols, healthy fats, and vibrant flavors, this drink isn’t just an energy booster—it’s a taste sensation. Whether you’re a smoothie aficionado or new to the blend, try this superfood green concoction! 


Ingredients

  • 1 avocado (frozen cal also be used, or cool in the freezer for one hour before using)
  • 2 cups chopped collard greens leaves
  • 1 cup coconut milk (or another plant milk of choice)
  • 1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, best if they are frozen or super cold)
  • 4 tablespoons cacao nibs (plus more for serving)
  • 1 tablespoon maca powder
  • 1 tablespoon spirulina
  • 1 teaspoon Lion’s Mane
  • 2 scoops Vital Reds 
  • about 2 cups cold, filtered water (I added gradually until the desired consistency, you can do the same)

Instructions

  1. Clean the collard greens and separate the leaves from the stems. Reserve the stems for another recipe. For the smoothie, finely chop the leaves until you have two packed cups.
  2. Combine all ingredients in a high-powered blender and blend until smooth. Add more water or milk to achieve your desired texture.
  3. Enjoy the collard green smoothie immediately for the best taste and nutrient retention.

Notes

Note on consistency and texture: Since this smoothie doesn’t contain any ice, is better if the ingredients are all cold, from the refrigerator, or even cooled in the freezer. Alternatively, you can add a few cubes of ice when you blend.
