Do you have a hard time getting your kids to eat their green vegetables? I used to….

But not any more

Every morning, my girls and I have this for breakfast together; but pay attention, this recipe is pretty difficult…(yes, that was sarcasm…)

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup of blueberries (we alternate days with different kinds of berries)
• 1 banana
• handful of spinach (we prefer the baby leaf spinach; however sometimes I use kale)
• 1-2 broccoli stems (the girls really dislike the stems on their own, so this works out great)
• 1 cup of water (or more depending on your desired consistency)
• **optional** 1 tsp. agave nectar to sweeten your smoothie up a bit

What To Do:

1. Put all ingredients into a blender.

2. Push the blend button.

3. Blend until smooth (hence the name, smoothie)

Not only do girls love them…

…but I know they’re getting huge amounts of natural nutrients! Blueberries alone offer us calcium, manganese, fiber, and antioxidants, while spinach offers vitamin A & C, lutein, flavonoids, folic acid, and even more calcium.

Go get one before they’re gone!
