This week, Healthy Eating Active Living shares a Kale Smoothie that is high in calcium. Many people have a hard time eating enough greens. Why not drink them once in awhile. Try this surprisingly great tasting calcium rich veggie smoothie. The citrus from the lemons and limes, helps to enhance the calcium absorption from the kale.

Wash all ingredients and combine in a blender and puree:

• 1.5 cups water
• 4-6 leaves of organic kale
• 4-6 leaves of organic romaine lettuce
• 1 handful of parsley
• Juice from 2 lemons or limes
• 2 inches of peeled ginger root
• 1 pear
• 2 peaches, pitted
