Tropical Kale Smoothie
TFFJ students at the Far Rockaway Educational Campus, working alongside TFFJ’s Jessenia Preciado, developed this original Tropical Kale Smoothie. This bold, refreshing blend highlights the produce they grow and the flavors they love.
Creamy, fruity, and just the right amount of sweet, the smoothie balances vibrant tropical notes with the earthiness of fresh kale.
After perfecting the recipe, they shared it across the Far Rockaway Educational Campus and with students at Scholars Academy—proving that when youth take the lead in the kitchen, good things spread.
