Today's Smoothie - Creamy Green

I woke up this morning feeling as though I was coming down with a cold. Maybe it's just in my head, but when I drink something green I almost immediately feel better. So I ran to the kitchen (okay, I didn't actually run), and I made myself something tasty and green to hopefully rid myself of that oncoming cold feeling.

I added some cucumber into this smoothie, which is different for me, because I'm not really used to adding veggies into smoothies. Kale has been like a "gateway green" for me though, so here's the fresh and creamy result of today's smoothie! :)


Texture note: there will be chewy bits from the shredded coconut and seeds in the kiwi.
