One of my favorite ways to pack a lot of good nutrient dense foods into my kid’s bodies is through smoothies. We all have one every afternoon (myself included) to help tide us over until dinner and hit those nutritional goals for the day. There are so many different variations of smoothies that you all likely won’t get bored of them!
I’ll list below a couple of our favorite smoothie recipe and then some suggestions of different ingredients you can combine to come up with your own. Don’t be afraid to experiment and get creative. I’ve been able to disguise all kinds of nourishing ingredients without my kids ever knowing!

A new favorite recipe has been 1/2 banana, honey, carrots, 1 celery stalk, mangos and pineapples with a scoop of collagen powder. If I have bananas going bad I chop them up in put them in the freezer but I usually use fresh bananas in our smoothies because so much of everything else in there is frozen. Try to have some fresh and some frozen ingredients in your smoothies. If you use all frozen your blender will have a hard time blending it well.
