Recipe : Fussy Eaters

Green Smoothie

Frozen bananas give the smoothie a creamy, naturally sweet base, though you can make this with a fresh banana as long as the other fruit is frozen. It’s easy to add whatever berries or fruit you have on hand, so customise it for your kiddo.

  • NOTES
  • Use spinach or kale and consider freezing the spinach to cut down on the “green” flavor.
  • Add 1 tablespoon hemp seeds, 1 tablespoon nut or seed butter, or 1/4 cup Greek yogurt for extra healthy fats and protein.
