freezing greens

I use a lot of my greens in smoothies and in order to keep them from going bad, Ive been washing and drying them then freezing. I looked online about freezing greens and everywhere says you have to blanch them, which I don’t want to do. They are only in the freezer about a week, but do think this is safe?? Ive been doing it for a few weeks but now im scared since every think i looked up says you have to blanch them first!

No mham unforunately I can only go once a week if im lucky! And thanks Alix, I guess thats the reason they say to blanch first they don’t expect most people will be using them in smoothies! But thats all I use my frozen greens for. I freeze kale, red chard, collard greens, and some spinach. I save some spinach for salads too but the other greens I just like in smoothies.
