Easy & Delicious Banana Kale Juice Recipe for a Healthy Breakfast
During the school break, I’ve been making healthy juices for my children as a breakfast alternative. Since they aren’t big fans of green vegetables, I try my best to create recipes that are both nutritious and tasty. While kale can have a slightly bitter taste on its own, when blended with sweet bananas, which are rich in natural sugars and fiber, the bitterness is masked, allowing you to enjoy a delightful sweetness. Kale is renowned for its high beta-carotene content, known to offer anti-cancer benefits and boost immunity. Here’s how to make this nutrient-packed Kale Banana Juice, a perfect healthy breakfast option that combines the goodness of kale with the sweetness and satisfying texture of bananas.
Ingredients- 8 large kale leaves
- 2 Tbsp vinegar (for washing kale)
- 1 banana
- 200ml yogurt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a blender, combine 8 large kale leaves, 1 banana, and 200ml of yogurt. Using a frozen banana this time made it even more refreshing, perfect for a cool summer drink! It creates a wonderfully smooth texture without needing to add ice, making it an ideal healthy summer smoothie. Using yogurt instead of water adds a delightful tangy sweetness without the need for additional sweeteners, making it a delicious tip for your juice.
Step 2
A great tip is to buy kale in bulk, wash it thoroughly, and then freeze it for easy access whenever you want to make juice. To prepare the kale, submerge the leaves in water that covers them, add 1-2 tablespoons of vinegar, and let it soak for about 5 minutes. After soaking, rinse them well, pat them dry, and they’re ready to use. You can also roll the cleaned kale leaves tightly and freeze them for convenient use later.
Step 3
Now, blend all the ingredients in your blender until smooth. Since there are no particularly hard ingredients, this process is quite straightforward and quick.
Step 4
Pour the smooth, vibrant green juice into a glass, and you’ll have a homemade fruit and vegetable juice that rivals those from your favorite café. The healthy goodness is evident just by looking at it. Thanks to the banana, it’s also a satisfying and light option for breakfast. Embrace this magical recipe that makes kale taste delicious, and enjoy a healthy and tasty homemade smoothie with your whole family to boost your well-being this summer.
