Cherry Pineapple Kale Smoothie

Used raw pineapple I had from Whole Foods. And some cherries from a Washington farm, sold locally by Pablo Munoz farms, a local Dayton area establishment. They sell the best strawberries, but I am saving those for my breakfasts. As I noted before, citrus and grapes seem to provide the best naturally sweet base for kale drinks. I thought pineapple and cherry would be outstanding. Hmmm... ok, but not with a wow-factor.

Blend together:

1+ cup of kale, ripped up
1 cup skim milk
1 cup, raw pineapple, cut up
16 cherries, pitted
1/2 tsp raw ginger, peeled, cut up

Serve and enjoy!

Rated a 4.61 on the Kale Scale.
