Hi Joi! Yes, using spinach will work just as well! I do find that if I overdo the spinach the smoothie sometimes starts to take on a “green” taste, but a couple of big handfuls is normally just fine. I’ve also tried using swiss chard and baby bok choy – both worked well! :)

Thanks for the reblog! :)

Hey Brooke! I dream of having one of those fancy ones that will pulverize anything in their path, but no… I just have a regular cheapo Braun one. If you’re worried about yours dying on you, I’d try blending just the water and kale first (maybe one stalk at a time), get that nice and smooth, and then add the other ingredients. I think it should be fine, but I can’t make any promises. ;)
