Taste Note: Tastes AWESOME. I do taste the kale in this smoothie. I like this brand coconut water (I like only this brand, it is no where closer to fresh coconut water, but this is the closet taste to the real one, but pricy, 1 bottle is $4.99), since we added the whole avocado, could taste avocado in this as well.

Bean Queen

Serves: 2

Beans

1/3 cup + 1 tbsp black beans

Overnight soak black beans in water.

1/4 tsp salt
5 cups water

Drain the soaked water, wash the beans, add beans, salt and water to a pan, allow it to boil, reduce the heat to low, cover partially and cook for 1 hour.

Yields: 1 cup cooked black beans. Used 1/2 cup in this recipe and the remaining 1/2 cup in Blues Be Gone

2 cups kale
1 and 1/2 cups blackberries
1 banana
1/2 cup cooked black beans
20 almonds
2 tbsp raw cacao

Taste Note: Tastes AWESOME
Note: This smoothie is not sweet, if you like your smoothie to be sweet, add 1 or 2 dates. But I like the way its.

Taste Note: Tastes AWESOME. Tastes like chocolate smoothie. Not very sweet. Didn't taste kale at all in this smoothie.
Note: If you make it and keep it for sometime, it becomes very thick.
