Green Smoothies
(Serves 2)
A yummy way to get extra fruits and veggies, for kids and adults alike.
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
2 cups stemmed and chopped kale or spinach
1 1/2 cups chopped pineapple or frozen mango slices
1 ripe banana
Juice of 1 lemon
Combine all ingredients plus 1/2 cup water in a blender and puree until smooth (about 1 minute). Add more water if needed to reach desired consistency.
Blend in a scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder for a power-packed snack!
Another great option: Blend 1 glass of almond milk and 2 tablespoons of peanut butter or almond butter with the greens, banana, splash of cinnamon and some ice cubes.
