Andaz Napa SmoothieLooking for an antidote to all the wonderful (and decadent) food stuffs at Thanksgiving -- and/or just for a great all-around smoothie that uses veggies like kale and baby spinach from your garden? Sarah Linkenhell, the executive chef at the Andaz Napa, which opened in downtown Napa in September and offers a "Napa-to-Table" restaurant called (fittingly) the Andaz Farmers Table, has created just what you're looking for. Even better, she was happy to share the recipe with us. Enjoy!

1 Granny smith apple, cored
1 large pear
1 banana
1 cup frozen pineapple, mango, peach mix
2 large leaves kale, no stem
2 large handful baby spinach
1.5 cup apple juice
1.5 cup water

Using a Vitamix blender, blend all ingredients until smooth. Enjoy chilled. Keeps for two days in the refrigerator.
