Each afternoon, when my oldest kiddo gets home from school, I throw together a quick smoothie to hold the kids over until dinnertime. They love it since they get to pick the main fruit used, and I love it because I slip veggies into it that they never know about, hehe!!! They quickly drink it down, and off they go to play until dinner. Its a win win for everyone!!
I have a Vitamix that I absolutely love. I literally wash and throw entire strawberries into smoothies without worrying about cutting the stems off. Makes life so much easier, hehe!! If you are in the market to buy a Vitamix, be sure to use the code below to receive free shipping on your purchase!! It is one kitchen appliance that I absolutely love and a great investment!! 🙂
