There are two basic types of smoothie makers:
TYPE A. The person who throws in whatever they think sounds good and VIOLA! – They have a deliciously healthy smoothie.
and
TYPE B. The person who follows a recipe because they’re slightly afraid that just throwing in this or that will make their smoothie taste bad. And then they’ll feed bad for wasting all that produce. And then drink the horrible-tasting smoothie anyway.
I’m type B. I want my smoothies to taste good, so I follow a recipe. Mr. Crumbs is type A. He doesn’t care what it tastes like in the end as long as he’s getting a glass full of fruits and veggies. He says that it tastes “good,” but I’ve tasted a few and it’s hard to look past the breastmilk-fed-baby-poo look in order to qualify the smoothie as edible.
So I stick to the plan. Mostly.
I’ve been drinking green monster smoothies for over a week now, varying just slightly from the basic recipe so my affectionately named “monster” smoothie doesn’t taste monsterous.
THESE.THINGS.ARE.SO.STINKIN’.GOOD.
SERIOUSLY.
But first, have you heard of green monsters before? They’re basically smoothies that are green – in color – because they’re made up mostly of spinach (or kale if you can’t eat spinach) and spinach is really, really good for you. This leafy green vegetable is high in fiber, protein, iron, folate and a bunch of other vitamins and minerals that you probably didn’t know you needed. 🙂 You can pretty much add whatever you want, but I first started with the basic recipe – the “no fail” recipe that even beginners would like. Honestly, I thought it was just o-kay. But I kept going and tried various additions and let me tell you what –
THESE.THINGS.ARE.SO.STINKIN’.GOOD.
I’m addicted. I can’t imagine having anything else for breakfast for the rest of my life. Cross my fingers that I never have to eat scrambled eggs with bacon and homemade biscuits!
Mmmm… maybe that should be on the dinner menu then…
I figured if I liked them, you would too, so I’m sharing some basics and some variations for you to try.
- Place all ingredients in a blender and hit go. Add ice to the blender if you want it extra cold and thick.
Sticking (mostly) to the original plan, here are the variations I’ve done so far:
Day 1:
1/2 cup kefir
1/2 cup plain almond milk
1 banana
2 cups spinach
1 tablespoon flax seed
Day 2:
1/2 cup kefir
1/2 cup plain almond milk
1 banana
2 cups spinach
1 tablespoon flax seed
4 whole strawberries
Day 3:
1/2 cup kefir
1/2 cup plain almond milk
1 banana
2 cups spinach
1 tablespoon flax seed
1/2 cup blueberries
Day 4:
1/2 cup kefir
1/2 cup pineapple juice (strained from canned pineapple)
1 banana
2 cups spinach
1 tablespoon flax seed
1/2 mango
Day 5:
1/2 cup kefir
1/2 cup plain almond milk
1 banana
2 cups spinach
1 tablespoon flax seed
1 tablespoon peanut butter
Day 6:
1/2 cup kefir
1/2 cup plain almond milk
1 banana
2 cups spinach
1 tablespoon flax seed
1 tablespoon nutella
Day 7:
1/2 cup kefir
1/2 cup plain almond milk
1 banana
2 cups spinach
1 tablespoon flax seed
1/2 cup mixed frozen berries
Additional Variations:
- substitute 1 cup kale for 2 cups spinach
- if you’re not ready for kefir, use 1/2 cup homemade yogurt and 1/2 cup coconut water
- increase the protein naturally with these other easy changes
- Find 10 more smoothie recipes here, all tested and approved – and enjoyed – during a 5 day smoothie fast!
- 30+ high protein recipes in my new eBook, High Protein, No Powder!
I give all of these variations two thumbs up. My favorite was day #4 with the pineapple juice and mango. YUM-O!
Adding 1/2 cup of blueberries or strawberries won’t make your green monster taste like blueberries or strawberries (respectively), but it will add a hint of the berry flavor and much deliciousness. The peanut butter addition was just heavenly…
DELICIOUS I TELL YOU!
By the way, don’t freak out of your green monster is less green with your added fruit. Blueberries made the smoothie slightly purplish-greenish, which may weird some people out, but if it does, just close your eyes when you drink it. 🙂

Green Monster smoothies?!! It does not look delish! Are any of you turning green yet? LOL We don’t own a blender — gave mine away before we left Seaside — and Wayne doesn’t have one either. Maybe someday we’ll catch the smoothie fever and buy one — just maybe. Anyway, y’all enjoy your monster drinks!
Love,
Leona
Looks wonderful. Nice work !
I made one this morning after seeing your post. I used almond milk, bananas,frozen vanilla yogurt (bought a big container on clearance and froze it in ice cube trays for smoothies),peanut butter, and spinach. It was so yummy!!!
I’ve been craving a smoothie with peanut butter since the first one I made! I’m trying to try a different variation every day, but I may make an exception for that one… or make another smoothie for lunch! Good idea on freezing the yogurt!
Sounds good – green is pretty 🙂 Hope this recipe bides well with the lactose free milks – I’m lactose intolerant :/
JoAnn
JoAnn, most people who are lactose intolerant can tolerate yogurt – the live cultures digest the lactose for us- I use plain yogurt instead of milk in mine and it works great. Truth be told I also add chocolate soy milk for the liquid component.
I’ve been wanting to make some green smoothies at home but don’t want to invest in a juicer until I really am ready…this looks great to start off with in a blender!
Hi Rita! If you have a decent blender (simply one that gets the job done), I personally don’t see a need for a juicer unless you specifically want to juice. A little bit of liquid goes a long way into making veggies drinkable!
Looks yummy! I love smoothies and we start everyday with Kefir smoothies, haven’t put spinach in them before though, maybe I will get brave and try it. 🙂
I love to drink green smoothies, once you get started you cannot stop. I like to make mine with coconut water, pineapple, mango, banana, spinach. A Tropical green smoothie.
I have also used low calorie coconut milk, plain greek yogurt for my smoothies.
I love them I cannot go a morning without having one. Stopping by from Motivate Me Monday link party
Love these! Thank you for linking it up in my pinterest link up! I”m giving it a pin!
I’m a type A Smoothie-er. I love combining spinach, berries, coconut milk and a little protein powder. It’s the secret to my success – though sometimes, I toss a little pineapple or mango in. YUM. I can’t wait to make smoothies with spinach from my own garden. Anyway… great post! 🙂
I newly launched Salmon At Seven (I used to be EKat’s Kitchen), and would love if you stopped by, said hi, and maybe, entered a giveaway!xoxo
I love green smoothies! Thanks for all of the extra ideas! Just stopped by from Eye Heart
These sound amazing! I’m going to the store this afternoon, so I’ll be picking up some ingredients for sure! Thanks for sharing 🙂
You’re welcome!
I’m a little afraid…but I think I’ll have to trust you! It looks so good!
Don’t fear! Try one with berries, mango or peanut butter first – those “hid” the spinach flavor best. As I keep testing new ingredients, I’m learning that the stronger the flavors of everything else, the more mild the spinach.
Love this! Thanks for sharing! We would love to have you link up over at our party!
Thanks for the invitation Rhiannon! Just liked up!
Some great smoothie ideas here. I found this through Turning the Clock Back’s What’s Cooking Wednesday. I have linked in an attempt at meatballs. Have a lovely week.
I love how you have the variations so that it doesn’t get boring. It’s so nice to get so much nutrition in one glass! Thank you for sharing.
What is kefir? What could I substitute for it? Thanks, sounds like something I would like to try to get off iced cappacino.
Hi Peg! Kefir is fermented milk. Sounds weird, but think yogurt and add even more good-for-you probiotics. It’s thicker than milk but thinner than yogurt. You can substitute 1 cup of milk, or 1/4 yogurt with 3/4 cup of milk if you’re looking for greater digestion benefits. I think this could get you off iced cappuccino’s, but I’ll warn you that there’s no coffee!
Thank you for participating in Show Your Stuff Blog Hop, You are invited to come back!
Thank you pinned!
Thank you for sharing at Scrumptious Sunday! You’re being featured this week! Congrats! Come by and check it out 🙂
I love green smoothies! Sometimes I freeze pairs to sweeten the instead of bananas and avocados to make them creamy. Cucumber is also great in them.
I will have to try adding flax sometime. I never have. Do you pre-grind the seeds or throw them in whole?
Hi Kristina! I buy my flax from Costco and it’s ground for me. I do want to look into buying them whole, in which case I’d throw them in whole since my blender can handle it. Pears and cucumbers – I hadn’t heard of either! I love pairs so when they’re in season, I’ll definitely give them a try!
I have heard so many people talking about adding spinach to smoothies. Thanks for the recipes! I’m definitely a Type B smoothie maker. My husband is much like Ratatouille in that he can just smell things, throw them together, and it tastes great. Thanks for sharing at the Pomp Party! Pinning to our Pomp Party board!
Thanks for the recipe! I just signed up for a Warrior Dash along with some other girls from my exercise class. My breakfasts really need to get healthy! -Marci
YUM!!! I gotta try this drink!
Thanks so much for sharing this at The DIY Dreamer.. From Dream To Reality!
Looks delicious!! Thanks for linking this up to Fantabulous Friday at Little Becky Homecky!!
Thanks for sharing all the smoothie recipes! I love smoothies but haven’t been making them as often as I should. Visiting from Foodie Friday!
yummy! thanks for linking with kids in the kitchen! yummy!
Hi Tiffany,
I just love your Green Monster Smoothies and want to try them all. Hope you are having a great summer week end and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!
Miz Helen
Spinach and flax?! I’m so there! THX for the recipe! 🙂
Shawn
I’m a reformed Type B Smoothier! I like to use spinach, plain yogurt, a T. of peanut butter, one sliced frozen banana, and a little chocolate soy milk. Yum! It’s seriously delicious! If I don’t get to make one for breakfast then I find myself craving it for lunch, it’s THAT good! I add different fruits when I have them, but the basic recipe is so good that it’s not necessary.
just wanted to let you know that this will be featured at this weeks Tasty Tuesday party. Going live tonight at 8:30. Come back and grab a featured button if you don’t already have one! Thanks for linking.
So many great variations! I’ve tried berries and peanut butter and even pineapple but mango – LOVE this! Pinning and featuring today at Mom On Timeout!
This drink is just packed with nutrition. Thanks for sharing it on foodie friday.
I need to try the spinach, I don’t know why but it sort of turns me off. However I was juicing avidly two years ago before my wedding and I felt amazing, I need to get back into the swing of things again with smoothies and juices… makes my mouth water.
Nissa
Congratulations!
Your recipe is featured on Full Plate Thursday this week. Hope you have a great week end and enjoy your new Red Plate.
Come Back Soon!

where can you buy Kefir?
Hi Christine! I buy my kefir at Trader Joe’s. I haven’t checked Whole Foods yet, so I’m not sure, but perhaps worth a phone call (or stop if you’re in the area). You can also make your own by purchasing kefir grains and “growing” kefir in milk, on your counter, for about 24-48 hours (depending on the temperature of your house). I’ve seen the grains on Cultures for Health and Amazon. I’ll be purchasing grains this month since I’m going through it regularly so I hope to be able to document the process for you guys!
Ha, ha! I’m sort of type A, except leave out the delicious part. I’ve always used green smoothies and green juices to cram as many nutrient-dense, disease-fighting plants into myself. I chug them. It’s the way I can get greens and other intense cleansing plants into my body without the annoyance and gross-factor of chewing them. I have made a couple of fruit-based or cacao-flavored things that were good. Those are treats. Usually I’m pounding down leafy green-blueberry-onion-lemon-ginger-turmeric-black pepper-oregano-rosemary-kelp-dulse smoothies as my breakfast staple. I do like making an omega-3 shake of hemp seeds, flax seeds, cacao, Himalayan pink salt, and stevia. That is my tasty treat. If I can fit in another green smoothie and/or a vegetable meal, that’s a good day. I think my first smoothie in my Vitamix was pretty foul. I think it included bean sprouts, carrot, and tomato and was way too thick. My green smoothies have evolved over time. I use them to get medicinal compounds in fast.
I find that the longer I drink smoothies, taste doesn’t remain as an important factor. I too look for nutrient dense foods and often toss them in there. The sour taste of kefir kinda evens out anything strange, lol. I don’t know if I’m brave enough to drink onion just yet, but I won’t say never!
hi 🙂 i am just starting the green monster smoothie plan 🙂 all these recipes sound great. first one i am trying is
2 cups organic baby spinach
1/2 cup low cal. coconut milk
1/2 cup frozen greek vanilla yogurt
1 banana
1 tsp cocoa powder
lets see how it goes…
Your recipe sounds deliciously cold and thick – like a morning milkshake! Yummy!
I would love to make one this morning, but I am out of fresh spinach…what about frozen? Have you ever tried it?
I personally haven’t tried frozen spinach, but several others have tried and do recommend it. Imagine what two average handfuls of spinach would cook down to and use that for your smoothie – maybe 2-3 rounded tablespoons? Please let me know how it turns out!
My sister uses frozen and says a cup will do it, which seems to me to be a physical cup, which would be half a package, not “8oz = 1c, so 1 whole package.” I mean, I’m sure you could do a whole package, but that would get pretty pricey pretty quick.
Thanks for the update Mat! I don’t think I’d put an entire package of frozen spinach in one smoothie either. Definitely to cut the cost, but that just seems like it would be an awful lot of spinach – even for a spinach lover!
I was able to get 5 servings out of 2 of the brick packages of frozen spinach, which is about $3, so that cuts costs nicely for those of us who need to consider that. I portioned it, and then put one portion in the fridge for the next day to make it a little less frozen.
NOTE: Unless you have a very good blender, you’re going to want to put your liquids & spinach in first and blend until smooth and then frozen banana and any ice you want to add and then blend smooth again. Otherwise you’re bound to bind it up with all the frozen stuff.
Speaking of blenders, this is very helpful – http://perfectsmoothie.com/smoothie-blenders I need something better than the basic one we have, but I’m not going to the $250-$400 level, so I just ordered one of the Osters. Maybe we’ll make the bigger jump later.
@Madeline — I don’t think frozen hurts the flavor. Actually, I’m amazed at how much so little peanut butter really dominates the flavor. Also per your comment, can you mix yogurt and citrus without it curdling or doesn’t it matter since your blending and drinking right after anyway?
Mat,
Thanks for the link to the blenders. I’m sure many will find it helpful when deciding to upgrade!
I haven’t had any problems with curdling when using yogurt, or any other dairy (I use kefir frequently). I’ve even made big batches 2-3 days ahead of time without a problem. I don’t know the science behind it, but my (non-expert) guess would be that the particles that gather and curdle can’t mingle very well since there’s so many other things going on at the same time. 🙂 ~Tiffany
Oh, and those interested in more delicious smoothies should definitely hang around next week. There’s nearly a week’s worth coming!
I had my very first green monster today for breakfast!!! Mine, like you said b/c of added fruit,was a dark greenish blue. Weird but very tasty!! In my smoothie was 1 banana, 2 cups of blue berries, 1 1/2 cups of unsweetened vanilla almond milk and a big ole handful of spinach!! Yum!! LOVE the idea of freezing yogurt, and also the idea of chocolate soy milk!!! I’m thinking chocolate banana and peanut butter?!?!?
I think the color of smoothies is the best part. My husband and I always guess what color the end result will be, based on the myriad of fruit colors. Most often we settle on “baby poop” lol. Chocolate milk, banana, small scoop of peanut butter and a big handful of spinach would be delicious! Go for it!
Hi Tiffany,
I have been reading your blog for quite some time, and have admittedly been afraid to try the green monster. I tried it this morning and it was delicious. My doctor told me to drink more milk/yogurt for health reasons (I am a woman in my mid-20s) and this seems to be the best way to do it. I would be curious to here how the frozen spinach went. I believe frozen spinach is cooked and has (in my opinion) a much stronger taste then fresh spinach. I personally upped the yogurt (plain greek) and added a little orange juice for the liquid.
Happy Monday!
Madeleine,
I’m so happy you boarded the green smoothie train! I prefer fresh spinach over frozen because some nutrients are lost when food is cooked (the degree to which is unknown, especially when you aren’t the one cooking it). Oranges and pineapples are “juicy” fruits so if you ever ran out of juice or milk or whatever, those help to keep the smoothie smooth. 🙂 Happy Tuesday to you!
frozen spinach isn’t really cooked. try thawing it and you’ll see. I’m guessing it might be steamed a bit to wilt it so that it’ll pack in there tightly, but that’s also to stop the enzyme action so it won’t continue working (at a slower rate) in the freezer. it’s a principle of using a freezer to preserve foods. if frozen without steaming then it can darken to black in the freezer over time. the amount it’s steamed is about a minute if I remember right.
I’ve been tempted by the idea of smoothies, but can’t face the idea of drinking my meal. if I can’t chew it, I’ve not eaten. LOL not to mention I’m allergic to dairy. AND diabetic so fruits raise my blood sugar. I just can’t see how this craze would work out well. the one time I made smoothies for my grandkids they were SO not impressed. they’d rather have food, too, it seems.
Kitty,
I can relate to your drinking vs. eating dilemma. I’m a chewer too! We use the dairy for its probiotic benefits, but we use coconut water too. In fact, here’s a recipe your kids should love – mine drank it like a dessert!
1 cup coconut water, 1 banana, 1/2 pear, 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, 2 sprinkles of cinnamon, 2 sprinkles of nutmeg, 1 sprinkle of ginger, 1 sprinkle of clove.
Tastes like pumpkin pie! I’ve got even more recipes coming next week. The results from a 5-day smoothie fast and my husband drinking vegetables each morning! ~Tiffany
Hi everybody. I’m new to this, but have decided I want to try it. I just have no clue what kefir is. Could anybody please explain? Thanks.
Zach,
The “what is kefir” post is here: https://dontwastethecrumbs.com/2012/09/what-is-kefir-why-drink-it/
and the “how to make it” is here: https://dontwastethecrumbs.com/2012/09/step-by-step-how-to-make-kefir-and-faq/
Finally, I wrote a guest post on the topic here too: http://www.kitchenstewardship.com/2013/02/01/whats-the-easiest-fermented-food-to-make/
Enjoy! ~Tiffany
So does milk work just as well as kefir?
My personal recipe, adapted from several GM variations is:
1/2 cup yogurt (some people prefer Greek, I think it tastes 3x better with regular vanilla yogurt)
1 cup milk (or whatever you use; almond milk is good, but if you’re on a budget, use what you buy for your house)
1 banana
2 cups fresh spinach (or 1/3 of a 10oz pkg of frozen spinach)
1Tbsp. peanut butter
It’s easy to remember, and for many people the only extra things your family has to but at the store now are the spinach ($2/pkg) and the yogurt, which are easier to sneak into the family budget.
Mat,
The peanut butter variation is one of my favorites! I’m a kefir-girl myself, but using 1/2 cup yogurt and 1/2 cup coconut water with what you have above would be my husband’s personal choice. If someone’s budget was really tight, I’ve seen frozen spinach as low as $1 per package and yogurt can be made at home for the price of milk! Thanks for sharing your recipe! ~Tiffany
Milk can work just as well if you’re looking for liquid, but kefir offers MUCH greater health benefits with the probiotics. If kefir is out of the question, I’d go with 1/2 cup yogurt and 1/2 cup other liquid (milk or coconut milk would be my two choices). This way you’re still getting some digestive health from the yogurt.
What is flax in the stores? The oil or the seeds? I don’t know what I’ll be looking for.
Flax Oil is super perishable, and MUST be bought from the refrigerated section of the healthfood store and refrigerated when you get it home.
Flax can be bought in the baking section of most supper markets. it comes in two forms, pre-ground, (also perishable) and seeds. you may use either, but must keep the ground seeds, (also called Flax meal or flax flour) in the freezer. the seeds need to be broken before consuming because they can’t be digested, and you won’t get the benefit of the omega3 oils if they aren’t broken. The whole seeds are probably referenced in this recipe, since the blender will grind them.
If you want to make your own flax meal for a recipe, such as in muffins, cakes, cookies or to sprinkle on a salad or cereal, they are super quick and easy to grind as needed in a coffee grinder.
Kitty,
A great answer – thanks for helping Zach out! ~Tiffany
Zach,
Flax in the recipe is referring to ground flax seed. It can be bought in bulk at Costco, or you can buy the seeds and grind them yourself in a coffee-grinder. 🙂 ~Tiffany
Hi there I love your blog so much and wonderful information two questions
do these smoothies keep you full until lunch?
Do you use a high powered blender like vitamin or blender?
Thank you!!
Ozlem,
Thank you!! These smoothies keep me full for about 3 hours. A couple pieces of cheese or some veggie sticks would hold me over until the next meal time. I currently have a Blendtec, but I’ve made green smoothies in an Oster, commonly found at Target! ~Tiffany
Have you tried using silken tofu? Or adding cocoa powder?
Agnes,
I don’t personally eat tofu because of the GMO issue with soy so I’m not sure how it would turn out. A smidge of cocoa powder would work, maybe 1/2 – 1 tsp (because a little bit goes a long way). A chocolate variety sounds yummy! ~Tiffany
Mmmmmm,
What am I missing? I make ALL my smoothies w/o diary of any kind – I use water as the base. A typical recipe would be:
20-24 Oz water
2-3 cups Kale (keep frozen)
1-2 cups Collards (keep frozen)
3+ cups spinach
blend down.. add…
cucumber
orange or apple
honey (or bee pollen)
Stevia
2 cups or so of frozen fruit
Makes 2-3 Qts that I drink throughout the day.
I figure the negatives of today’s dairy products outweigh ANY potential health benefit.
I do drink Almond milk and use for recipes or on my cereal but I stay away from dairy.
I have drank well over 700 smoothies in the past year and feel FANTASTIC – no digestive issues, sleep great, have lost 50 Lbs and have turned the clock back 20 years as far as my energy level.
I have been in the smoothie world for about two weeks, I’ve been looking at the famous green monster, but though I love spinach, I was afraid to try…today I did, following your day 1 recipe, adding some peanut butter (without knowing that one came later) oh my word! I’m in love!
So, thanks!
Gabriela,
Welcome to the amazing world of smoothies! I’m so glad you enjoyed your first green smoothie! We’re addicted in the Crumbs house, and have tried even more fruits as the seasons are changing. Enjoy the fresh flavors!! ~Tiffany
Tiffany,
I made the basic Green Monster recipe this morning and boy was it tasty!!! I had tons of energy afterward and felt really clear and focused! It was simply amazing (since I AM NOT a morning person)!!!!!
Thank you so much for these recipe ideas! I will continue experimenting with additional fruits to keep it interesting! For the record, I’m hooked!
Jan,
I’m so glad you liked them! I’m hooked too, and feel almost “naked” when we run out of greens. We did a banana/mango/watermelon/orange one this week that tasted like a dreamsicle – delish!
BEAUTIFUL photo – I want to reach right through the screen and grab it! I am pinning this and sharing it on FB as well as making one as soon as I finish typing this!! YUM! Thanks for sharing, sweet friend!! 🙂
Hey! Thanks for sharing Kel! I’m SO addicted to smoothies, it’s insane. Then again I’m also doing a bit of research too… 😉 The one with mango is REALLY good, and I’m already looking forward to pumpkin season again! 🙂
This sounds so yummy. I wonder is there a substitute for banana. They make my mouth itch and I try to stay away from them, which is hard cause they are so yummy.
Hi Rachelle!
Mango, pears and even chia seeds can be used in place of bananas, which add a hint of sweet and creamy to the smoothie. Mango’s are in season and super cheap right now, so if possible, scope out your markets and buy “seconds.” Puree it all up and freeze in ice cubs to savor the flavor until pears are ripe. 🙂 ~Tiffany
PS – if bananas make your mouth itch, there’s a good chance avocados may too… which are also a good sub for bananas, but won’t help with the itch factor. 😉
Hi Tiffany!!
Firstly, I would like to thank you for sharing your recipes. I have a few questions regarding your “7-days of green monster smoothies” plan:
– Can the smoothies be replaced as your main meals, just like your “five days fast smoothies”?
-How many times a day can I drink each smoothie and how much do I consume in each serving?
Thank you very much in advance
Hi Mahasti! You can use these smoothies as your main meals if you’re looking to cut back on calories. I personally drink one smoothie each morning and drink whatever the blender makes (so the full recipe as written). Hope that helps!
Thanks Tiffany for your reply. I just wonder you took only one smoothie in the morning? Is it enough to survive whole day?
During the fast, I drank one smoothie in the morning and one in the early evening. On a typical day, I drink one as a replacement for breakfast but still eat lunch and dinner.
Love the different variations you put on your green smoothies. No need to over-complicate things! I’m a big fan of chia, too, as well as flax. Thanks for sharing these.
I’m on a diet recently and i think this post will help me a lot. It makes my recipe diversified. Thanks !
I’m way late to this party, but: peaches, apple, banana, and ginger plus your greens of choice – I usually do kale, but use spinach if I’m out of kale. So.stinking.good.
My family loves these!!!!! Thank you !
