Once again, another smoothie. We consume a lot of them these days. Kids love them. And I love them because it is a good way for me to shove healthy things down their mouth without them knowing. Like flax seed. They would never agree to eat anything with it but I put it in their smoothies and they never know. (Go HERE to read all the wonderful benefits of Flax)
This morning, it was Chloe's choice. I usually let the kids pick what they want to have in it. Some have turned out aweful. But this morning, it was quite good. And simple. And healthy!
Strawberry Chocolate Smoothie
1 cup frozen strawberries
1 cup almond milk (or lowfat milk)
1 cup baby spinach (you dont taste it at all, dont worry)
1 Tbsp milled flax seed
lowfat chocolate syrup
(not sure how much. I just pour until I think its enough. 3 Tbsp?)
Put all in Vita-Mix (or blender) and blend until smooth. You may have to add more milk, depending how thick or thin you like it.
