Sounds weird, looks gross, but tastes really good and packs a nutritional punch. This is a great smoothie to drink while breastfeeding, because the kale provides calcium and folate and boosts milk production. The hemp powder adds protien and Omega-3s. 1 cup frozen pineapple 1 banana, fresh or frozen 2 leave of flat-leaf kale, stems [...]

Canola oil [...]
