In a blender combine all ingredients with the soft or wet ingredients on the bottom. (example: juice, yogurt, banana, frozen fruit) This will save your blender from over working itself and all the ingredients will blend quicker. Blend til desired consistency is acheived. Pour into a glass or a cup for the kiddos and poke in a fun straw.
There is no need to add sugar or any other sweeter as long as the fruit is nice and ripe. The supermarket carries a wide array of fruits in the frozen section.
Cheers!
Thanks for the tip about the blender. I always feel I have that problem, the overworking.
ReplyDeleteThose all look and sound so tasty.
And I had to say that I have the same glasses as those photographed in the 2nd snapshot :)
I LOVE your blog! I am the mother of a child with severe eating issues. We use smoothies everyday to help him get some of the nutrition that he is missing from regular meals. Here are a few tricks: Pineapple hides the taste of almost everything, and can aide digestion. Try adding spinach, kale (fresh) or broccoli (blanched, frozen) to any of the above recipes. I often add pureed pumpkin by the tablespoon as well. Yummy- and if you don't tell them they will NEVER know! Next stop....spinach popsicles...Yep- ANYTHING is possible!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds simple and delicious. And, I'm sure you could change it to suit any taste.
ReplyDeleteThey all look good and healthy!
