Shamrock Shake Copycat (Edit recipe)

I created this recipe a few years ago when my husband asked me to come up with a healthier version of a Shamrock Shake in smoothie form. So instead of using ice cream/heavy cream/green dye, mine is sweetened with fruit and colored with veggies.

This has 3 (!!) veggies (no you can’t taste them!), some healthy fat, and plenty of fiber to keep you full for hours. Take that McDonalds! 🤪

Add everything to a blender and blend together. Enjoy!

Notes

If you don't use the kefir, add an extra 1/4 cup of whatever milk you choose. If you do use the kefir, you don't need the hemp seeds. The hemp/kefir are both healthy sources of fat so just choose one. If you want neither of them, I suggest adding a TBS of nut butter (cashew would be best since it won't affect the flavor).
