Veggie Smoothie Submitted by J.
“To help my son get his veggies I use spinach and you can’t even taste it. This will make a green smoothie. If you prefer a purple smoothie replace the mango with a frozen berry mix. I’ve also added a little bit of sweet peas and my son couldn’t tell. In the future I’ll try some canned carrots.I don’t measure out the ingredients but use approximately a handful of each of the following:”
banana
frozen mango
frozen spinach
orange juice (or fruit juice)
vanilla yogurt
add milk to thin if needed
add a little honey or more yogurt if it needs to be sweeter

2/3 cup strawberries
1/2 cup honeydew melon
3/4 cup milk
2 tsp vanilla whey powder
