Our Favorite Smoothie! Start off your mornings right with this family favorite! Fresh bananas, frozen mangos and berries, yogurt, almond milk, flaxseed meal and more. My kids love this smoothie and yours will too!
Hey guys! Welcome to
This section of my blog was previously called Mom Moments. Right when I started my blog, I took the time to write posts about my kids. Moments we were having, special memories I wanted to capture, advice I wanted to share as a mother and just some fun.
A lot of my friends are surprised when they see my kids eating fruits and vegetables. Don’t get me wrong! My kids are not perfect eaters by any means. They do eat their fruits and vegetables but if you put a cookie in front of them, they’ll take the cookie.
They are smart too. Did I mention that?
Anyway, my advice for parents out there who want to get their kids to eat more greens? Make smoothies! Throw in 2 to 3 heaping cups of greens (spinach, kale, collard greens, whatever you have), blend those greens with frozen berries and yogurt and more and you are set!
This recipe is a family favorite! We hope you give it a try!
And here’s a “berry” approved smoothie recipe that is sure to become a family favorite!
