Lately, at the Shay House, our go-to Summer Smoothie recipes involve cool cucumber, kale and frozen black cherries. It’s super-tasty, so the little ones won’t even know there are veggies in there! Need a quick healthy start to your day? Look no further.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Lowfat Vanilla Yogurt
- 2 cups sliced Cucumber
- 2 cups Kale
- 2 cups frozen Black Cherries
(Don’t you love when a recipe uses equal amounts of everything? So easy to remember!)
This recipe is so easy, there aren’t even directions: just blend all ingredients. For best results, put the yogurt in the blender first. For further best results, serve in a frozen mug. This recipe makes 2 large smoothies, share it with someone you love.
If you like this recipe, try my other Shay House Smoothie recipe, with spinach, bananas and blueberries.

This looks so delicious–making this right away! I love frozen dark cherries in smoothies, but I never thought to mix them with cucumbers. One of my fav summer smoothies is ice, carrot chunks, a knob of ginger, a half an apple…blend it up till smooth and then sprinkle a little cayenne pepper on top. It’s sweet and spicy.
Mmmm, a cherry smoothie sounds delicious! I am not entirely sold on the kale though, but I believe the Shay House knows what they’re doing.
I like kale once out of every 20 times I try it. Just enough to make me keep trying it.!
Can’t wait to try this! It looks so easy to make! I have everything less the Kale, but have some powder that I love to put into drinks by “Garden of Life”, it’s an excellent product.(Perfect Food Raw Organic Green Super Food)
This looks so refreshing! This would be a great way to start the day. I will totally be blending this one soon. Yummy!!!
Looks great! I love smoothies – I’ll definitely be trying this one out.
