You are a fan of smoothies, right? You make them regularly…don’t you?
If not, can I encourage you to get out your blender and start making some of these fine treats? Smoothies are so versitile, so healthy, so easy. Oh - and kids LOVE ‘em! Usually while drinking a smoothie my kids feel as though they are having ice cream or a milk shake.
I have found smoothies to be an excellent part of this nutritious breakfast, lunch or dinner. It helps fill us up, it’s a great way to sneak in lots of fruit (or even veggies)…and it’s a great source of calcium.
Here’s how I would suggest “building” a smoothie:
- Begin with your favorite choices of frozen or fresh fruits. Strawberrries, raspberries, blueberries and peaches are some of our favorites. Fill the blender three quarters full of fruit. Feel free to sneak in some spinach leaves. They blend right up and add fabulous nutrition!
- Add your favorite sweetener. We prefer real grade b maple syrup or stevia in ours.
- Pour in your choice of liquid: milk, kefir or yogurt. Using kefir and yogurt are wonderful to provide good cultured dairy into your diet to aid in digestion.
- Add a tiny bit of vanilla extract if you wish.
- Blend it all up until it’s smooth and serve!
Your smoothie making experience will be even easier if you put together pre-made smoothie bags! Simply put a “blender sized amount” of your favorite smoothie fruits into a freezer bag. Make several of these at once, and you’ve just saved yourself some valuable minutes each time you want to make smoothies for your family!
If you’re ever in need of a quick, healthy and filling meal…whip up a batch of your family’s favorite muffins. While they are baking, pull out the blender and make smoothies. And then…simple though it is…you have a quick lunch that is satisfying and delicious. (If that doesn’t seem like quite enough to satisfy your family’s appetite, scramble up some eggs to go along with the smoothies and muffins!)
So, what are your favorite kinds of smoothies?
