This afternoon, I invented this lovely green Christmas Smoothy! I had leftover cranberries & fresh black kale leaves from our allotment so I needed something energizing to get me through the afternoon. Yum yum yum! ๐
Recipe: for 4 cups = 1 liter of smoothy
Ingredients:
2 cups coconut water (500 ml)
1 cup fresh cranberries (120ย gr)
4 black kale leaves, cleaned, big stalks removed ( I used 3 large & 1 small leaf)
1 orange, peeled & deseeded
1 tablespoon broken flaxseed
2 pitted large dates
Method:
- Take your beloved Vitamix & place every ingredient in this order in it. Place tamper & fitted lid on & blend on high-speed for about 10-15 seconds, by using tamper to push ingredients into the running blades. Pour into lovely smoothy glasses & enjoy with a paper straw! ๐ Yum! You get a kick of the black kale, the sweetness of the orange & dates & specks of yummy fresh cranberries!

Christmas love
spreads joyfully to
friends, new and old, as
natural as mountain streams
flow under
ice and snow
still moving, to join.
Harmony
comes from sharing a
round table. Buddha
Mohammad,
Jesus, Confucius,
Abraham, Gandhi
and Luther invite a pope
to break bread
under one God
that all pray to here
in Gwangju,
there in Amsterdam,
and Davao, where the
hunt for food
and water reverts to old
ways, not the
usual Christmas,
but children scramble
for goodies
like coconuts, fruit, rare meat
while we feast
on turkey, baked so
well, spring rolls folded
and rolled by
hands so delicate you canโt
imagine
what theyโve done. Merry
Christmas everyone.
Thank you, how well & lovely written too! ๐ xxx
