Smoothies are one of my favorite ways to sneak nutrition into my kids. They think they’re getting away with an extra dessert since smoothies look and taste a lot like milkshakes. I love them for me since they’re a quick and easy breakfast or snack that I can make and take with me as I head out to run errands.
