I made my first "green" smoothie!
Ingredients:
- About 12 oz of liquid---1/2 was water, 1/2 was orange juice
- Almost 1 banana (my baby got a few slices before it went in the blender)
- 1 1/2 handfuls of spinach
- The leaves off of 2 stalks of kale
- Milled flax seed (I didn't measure, but it was probably 2-4 Tb)
- About 2 handfuls of frozen strawberries
Put liquids in, then add the rest of the ingredients, and blend!
Notes about this recipe:
- "Green" smoothies are usually green, but if you add berries or other red fruits they turn brownish. Don't let the color scare you!
- My baby LOVES smoothies, and she liked today's "green" one too! I think kids and smoothies are a great combination.

Miriam isn't too fond of fruit and smoothies are one of the only ways I can get her to eat/drink them. She was even asking for a green smoothie last week, but I was out of spinach.
