What does that mean, exactly, "Kale is the quarterback of dark leafy greens"?

[rosered7774]

@kwiggy69 it's basically the strongest, most power-packed, nutrient dense veggie of the dark leafy green vegetables. It's very dark and firm, that indicates potency - the lighter and flimsier, the less potent =)

its all about getting different colors of produce each day? sorry i had to lol at that.

so wait, why did you add the ice? pretty much if you blend ice that much, it will just turn into bits so small they will just melt into the recipe.

[rosered7774]

I know - it was the first and only take, definitely could of worded it better.

anyway - the smoothie tastes best when its really cold, and the vitamixer crushes everything pretty fast, so the drink IS ice cold if you drink it within the first several minutes.

After that the ice does "melt" and the drink will get warmer...

hmmm - that seems an awful lot of salt you're putting in there

[rosered7774]

I'm sure it does but ya gotta believe me - I've made the drink thousands of times + any less makes the drink unpalatable - to me at least. It makes 4 full 16oz glasses, so it's only 3/8" tsp per serving =)

we have a vitamix and i will make this - the only difference is I will use Kangen water, better than any filtered water, because it is an anti-oxidant

Nice video. Good demonstration. My wife wants one of these for Mothers day.

[isaachaze1]

you're a lovely woman and good job providing the information. hope we see more vids

[majoshlin]

no. the blendtec can do the same job.

[missbish]

Thank you so much for this recipe. My parents paid lots of money for the vitamix and they don't even use it ! anyhow i'm slowly transitioning to a raw food lifestyle and i was freakin' glad that i don't need to buy a juicer

Whats wrong with tap water? or is it not like UK water?
