This is the simple and easy way to make a green smoothie that all kids will love
We are always looking for ways to get more veggies into the kids, and green smoothies are a great way of achieving this.
When it comes to smoothies for children, though, it definitively helps to keep the flavour as naturally and sweet tasting as possibly.
We love this simple version right here, served in a small cup with a straw, a sippy cup, in a pouch, or even frozen into a freezer pop. (Anything served in ice cream form is a winner, you see).
Simple Green Smoothie
Makes 2 toddler-sized servings.

1 cup almond milk (or dairy milk or coconut)

1. Place all ingredients into blender and blend on high for 1 minute or until all the ingredients are combined and very smooth.
