We smoothie

I'm praying I don't have a picky eater on my hands, then again, what kid doesn't go through a picky phase at some point or another, so, I guess I should just prepare myself for it, and pray it's a short duration. Once upon a time our little man would eat any and everything in sight...as if that wasn't already obvious just by looking at him. We love the chub! But, somewhere along the way, he grew out of that love for everything, and now he picks and chooses what goes in his mouth, which tends to be anything but vegetables these days. So much so that the moment a vegetable even enters his mouth, he screams and shouts voicing his absolute disapproval.

So, we disguise.

Enter green smoothies. No day in this house is complete without a green smoothie or two. My day is seriously thrown off when I don't have one to kick things off with in the morning. Thank goodness this little one is about as obsessed with them as I am. He gets excited when he hears the blender going, and even more excited when he sees the cup coming straight for his mouth. So, if it's not for youtube videos distracting him while we force some veggies into his mouth, green smoothies have been my saving grace. It tricks him every time!

I'd leave you with a few of my favorites, but really, every day we're trying something new. Toss a carrot in here, some kale in there, spinach always, and some fruit and coconut water/milk to top it off. Maybe if we're feeling zesty we'll throw in some celery or cucumbers, too, you just never know what we're going to end up with. It's hit and miss at times, but thankfully, even the nasty smoothies Preston downs like it's the best thing he's ever had. So, we smoothie. Every day. And it's satisfying.

Do you have any smoothie recipes that are a must?
