I don't have a juicer. Can I just blend these as a smoothie?

  Hi Karri,
  
  Unfortunately, the harder veggies like the carrot and celery won't blend well unless they're in a juicer.
  But please check out our numerous smoothie recipes:https://www.liverdoctor.com/category/recipes-2/beverages-smoothies/

  Hi Kerry,
  
  You could use 1/2 an apple as a replacement.

Hi
Collard greens are not available in Australia or at least where I live! What is a good substitute in this recipe please. Thanks Adrienne

  Hi Adrienne,
  
  Spinach or kale would be an appropriate replacement.
