This kale apple smoothie (Short Girl Tall Order) makes a quick snack (check medication before consuming leafy greens). England has many varieties of heritage apples, but all in danger of disappearing due to supermarket imports (most are sprayed with shellac – insects – to make them shiny).
Look for organic apples in farm shops or community orchards (invest in a good peeler for both apples and spuds). As apple skin produces ethylene gas, store them in an airtight container in the fridge, to prevent them going brown (or being damaged by rolling around on countertops).
Smooth Move offers ready-made smoothie mixes in compostable packs. Just add the contents to plant milk and blend. Choose from apple spinach, blueberry, strawberry/raspberry or peanut butter banana. Made with fruits, veggies, nut butters, superfoods & spices.
If you invest in a good blender to make smoothies, UK law says the shop selling it, has to take back old appliances for recycling.
