    A delicious low carb chocolate shake made with coconut milk and kale. This healthy dairy-free, sugar-free treat only tastes like an indulgence. Paleo friendly. This post is sponsored by Cut ‘N Clean Greens.

    Low carb keto frosty recipe made with coconut milk and kale. Crazy but true! Dairy-free THM LCHF Banting recipe

    Sometimes it’s really fun to mess around with healthy ingredients and see if you can fool your tastebuds. Don’t get me wrong, I actually think most healthy ingredients taste really good on their own. With the exception of beets, which taste like dirt to me, I love most fresh greens and veggies just as they are, with minimal cooking and seasoning. So there isn’t usually a need to trick my tastebuds to get healthy foods into me. My kids, on the other hand, can not always be persuaded to eat the healthy options when they LOOK like healthy options. I still push the fresh, real foods because I know eventually they will have a more sophisticated palate that can appreciate them. But sometimes it really is fun to see if we can trick ourselves into eating greens that don’t taste like greens.

    The lovely folks at Cut ‘N Clean Greens sent me many a package of their ready to eat kale for just such a purpose. I was so successful with the bok choy brownies from their other brand (Jade Asian) that we thought we’d attempt another dessert recipe. And given that it’s the dog days of August, they asked for something frozen. I thought about kale pops and kale ice cream but they already had recipes for those. So I thought it might be fun to make a Chocolate Kale “Frosty”. And for another fun twist, I did it dairy-free with coconut milk. But you could easily make it with cream as well.

    To make it easier all around, I chose to simply freeze the coconut milk into ice cubes and blend it in the blender, rather than putting the work into making an ice cream base. It worked beautifully and I honestly couldn’t stop sipping at it. It makes about 2 to 3 servings, and I had to exercise my self control enough to have some for when the kids got home from camp. They loved it too and had no idea they were getting some healthy kale in there!

      Hi Carolyn, I just LOVE your recipes! But I can’t find this one on the other website. I scrolled through about 10 pages to the end of the recipes but couldn’t find it. I’d love to get it though. Thanks!

      Made this yesterday and really was absolutely delish – really hit the spot! Two Questions: How did you get yours to LOOK like chocolate? Mine was gross unappetizing green, but so delish!! Also, I’ve noticed in some of your recipes – you use different brands of dutched cocoa, and am wondering why that is. I’m wondering if some of the more expensive ones have a better/intense chocolatey flavor than over dutched cocoa???

        If it was green, I think you must have been using a light cocoa powder? I don’t necessarily have any rhyme or reason to why I have used different cocoa powders but I will say that I do like the (rather expensive) Valrhona the best. Very rich and chocolatey!

      Stupid question – isn’t there coconut cream on the top of the milk? So do you mix it all up and then freeze it or just the liquid portion? Sorry – I’m new to this! Thank you.

        Sorry, Sharon, but that website shut down and never told me. I no longer have the recipe, although I do have the ingredient list. Since it’s a frosty, you should be able to just blend it all up!

        1 cup full fat coconut milk
        2 cups crushed ice
        2 ounces kale
        3 tbsp powdered Swerve Sweetener
        2 tbsp cocoa powder
        1 cup unsweetened almond milk
        1/2 tsp vanilla extract

      In the Netherlands, one of our national dishes is kale mashed with potatoes. It is easy to make with pre-cleaned and cut kale in bags at the grocery. Made a low-carb version last night and had too much kale since our oldest son went off to college. Just found this and was wondering what to do with my leftover frozen kale…now to go start freezing coconut milk… Thanks for the idea!

      I need to try this for my kids. I love red beets and once I had leftover cooked red beets. Not enough to can or wait for another meal so I put them into my blender with tomato sauce and added them to a meatloaf. No one knew. They thought it tasted live ravioli.

      Lol I love beets, especially fresh, home cooked ones and have ever since I was an infant. Love the addition of some healthy greens to the smoothie. It certainly never hurts to hide it in there!

      Call ME crazy but I LOVE beets. Don’t think they taste like dirt at all. Too high carb so I rarely eat them but when I do look out. ?

      This may sound stupid considering it has coconut milk in it but does it have a strong coconut taste?

        No, the chocolate covers it up. You could use cream instead, though.

      your recipes always call for full fat coconut milk. Would this recipe also work with the lite version??

        Of course my recipes call for full fat…this is a low carb, high fat diet. However, if you want to try light, you can give it a go. I don’t think it will be as thick but should be pretty tasty.

      Fresh beets are definitely dirt flavored. I’ll eat em pickled till the cows come home. I’m making this smoothie after I “clean all the things” in my house. I’ve got fresh kale in the garden to use up. Thanks for making this low carb thing easy. ?

              Agreed Carolyn, I really, REALLY want to like them, they are nutritious, and I can tolerate a small amount in an otherwise delicious salad, but don’t give me a big plate o’ sliced beets. I keep trying them every once in awhile, thinking they might have changed, or my taste buds might have changed. Sigh. No.

              If you add a half beet with a banana and hwc, kale, and a 1/2 an apple you won’t taste the beets.

              I am pretty sure I will always be able to taste those beets…
