There are so many options for shakes/smoothies but here is a nice option for children who don’t like anything that looks remotely like a fruit or vegetable.

Ingredients:

• 1 banana
• 1/2 cup blueberries
• 1 1/2 cups of chocolate (or regular) almond milk (unsweetened)
• 1 tbsp molasses (optional – to increase iron content)
• 1 1/2 cups of ice cubes
• 1 tsp ground hempseeds or flax seeds (for adults – 1 tbsp)
• 1 scoop greens + kids (for adults – greens +)

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.  Makes 3 cups.

Health Benefits:

Shakes are an excellent way to add additional nutrients, proteins, greens and essential fats into your child’s diet.  Enjoy!
