How to Make a Delicious, Kid-Approved “Green” Smoothie

Do you struggle trying to get your kids to eat their veggies? Out of all three of my kiddos, I’ve only ever been able to get one of them to be somewhat good at this, but with the other two, the struggle is real! Several years ago, I finally found a way to get them to get at least some fresh greens. It’s a “green” smoothie because of the spinach, but the berries cover that up, which is a plus with picky eaters! Here’s the recipe: 

• 3 handfuls of fresh spinach

• 3 cups of ice

• 1 cup orange juice

• ¾ cup greek yogurt (or any yogurt works)

• 1 banana

• I cup fresh or frozen berries (I use strawberries, blueberries and raspberries)

• You could alternatively use frozen mangoes instead of berries for a more tropical twist

• Tip: Add an extra banana and some more yogurt for a smoother texture!

Throw everything in a blender, blend it up and voila! You have yourself a healthy (and super yummy) smoothie that is extremely kid-friendly. Enjoy!
