Green Smoothies
My sister kept telling me to make a green smoothie. I kept telling her I prefer to eat my spinach WHOLE and not ground up for breakfast. Well, she was right and I was wrong.
My kids now beg for a green smoothie for breakfast each morning.
It is simple to make and FULL of vitamins! Here are my ingredients....
I forgot to take a photo of the smoothie, so I found this one on the web....
Green Smoothie Recipe
handful of frozen berries
1 banana
1/3 cup greek yogurt
1/3 cup almond milk
heaping tablespoon ground flax seed
Spinach or Kale - just fill to the top of the blender.
This typically makes three small smoothies.
Hint No. 1 - My kids are not crazy about the kale - even though it is healthier than spinach. Today while we were in Publix, I grabbed a bag of spinach and my son said "Yes!" He was honestly just glad I didn't pick up the bag of kale, but I love to hear my kids cheer when I buy spinach. It warms my heart.
Hint No. 2 - Drink it with a straw. Some berries have lots of seeds - the straw enables you to drink your smoothie as you drive to high school!

Enjoy your day!
