This is a wonderful smoothie that can be made into kefir ice cream.
Popeye and Olive Oyl
This is probably one of the things I make at least once a week. I love it, and so does my family. Kids will never know that this has spinach in it. I have disguised this by saying," this is a shamrock shake or Popeye's shake", and they are so distracted by this that they forget that it is green, and just think that it is cool. I top this ice cream with some of the new fruity flavored olive oils on the market today. My favorite is the blood orange flavor and the lemon flavored one. Just a drizzle across the top and it really gives this ice cream such a WOW factor when you eat it. Like a syrup topping only no sugar. You can just leave this as a smoothie and not make it into ice cream and this is delicious too.
I made this for the kefir classes that I teach, and it is always surprises people how easy it can be to put healthy foods like kefir and spinach in your diet.
