Breakfast Smoothies<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A fun way to add a few more fruits and veggies into your kid’s diet is with smoothies. You can even sneak in a little spinach when nobody is looking. Smoothies are served in our kitchen many times throughout the week. It might be with breakfast or it might be a mid-morning or afternoon snack. It is a great way to get a couple fruits and vegetables in each day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can make your smoothies as thick or thin as you like. I just put them together and mix them with my immersion blender. I don’t measure any of these ingredients. My measurements below are estimates only.

The banana is key to a smooth creamy smoothie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peanut Butter and Banana Smoothie<\/span><\/strong>
1 banana
1\/2 cup peanut butter
2 cups milk\/almond milk\/soy milk
1\/2 cup raw spinach leaves
1 tsp ground flax seed.
(This smoothie will be a little thinner than the others)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mango Strawberry Peach Smoothie<\/span><\/strong>
Frozen Mixed Fruit 1 1\/2 cups ( mango, peach slices and strawberries)
1 banana
2 cups milk\/almond milk\/soy milk
(You can also use 1 cup orange juice and 1 cup milk)
1\/2 cup raw spinach leaves<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue Berry Smoothie<\/span><\/strong>
1 cup frozen blueberries
1 banana
2 cups milk\/almond milk\/soy milk
Scoop of Whey
1\/2 cup raw spinach leaves<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You might think, spinach? Yup. In a smoothie it is tasteless. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can always use fresh fruit when available, but the frozen fruit makes the smoothie cold and a little thicker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
