Notes

Feel free to customize the ingredients based on your family’s preferences and dietary needs. You can use any combination of frozen fruits, and sneak in vegetables such as spinach or kale. If your kids are picky, naming the smoothies creatively can help encourage them to try it. For a thicker texture, blend in some frozen bananas or use less liquid. You can prepare your ingredients the night before to save time in the morning by portioning them into bags or containers.
