Kid-Friendly Green Smoothie

This is a delicious, fruity-tasting smoothie that my three children INHALED. My daughter even asked for seconds; normally, while she claims to like smoothies, she has a hard time finishing them (and the kids usually get an 8-10 oz. serving--not one of of those giant smoothie servings some restaurants pass out). Keep this in mind for a quick nutritional boost on school mornings! (We made triple this batch for 3 kid servings and 2 generous adult servings plus a small amount leftover.)

Kid-Friendly Green Smoothie

  • 1 c. baby spinach
  • 1  frozen bananas
  • 1 1/2 c. frozen fruit blend (I used Dole's mango/pineapple/peach/strawberry blend)
  • 1 c. almond milk
Blend/puree! Start with less almond milk and adjust as needed for consistency. We like them fairly thick (and ate with a spoon, but could have used a straw.)
