How To Make Smoothies
The best part about smoothies is that they are so easy to make. It’s really difficult to mess them up. That being said, there are a few tips when it comes ot making a delicious smoothie recipe for kids! Check out our guide on How To Make a Smoothie for step by step intstructions and then try a few of the recipes below!
If you need more variety, take a recipe below and change it up. Here are some ideas for substitutions:
- Milk – Try unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, natural fruit juice or just water works well too
- Frozen Fruit– Frozen banana, frozen blueberries, frozen strawberries, frozen mango, or frozen mixed berries
- Fresh Fruit– You can always use fresh fruit, but it can be pricier than frozen. Healthy smoothies are a great way to use overripe fruit.
- Protein (no protein powder)– Nut butter like almond butter, peanut butter powder, greek yogurt, coconut milk yogurt, or avocado. These add protein but they also make for a creamy smoothie!
- Superfood Mix Ins –Hemp hearts, chia seeds, almonds, YourSuper powders
Fortunately, the kids have learned to love a variety of smoothies, so I have come up with a go-to list of healthy kid-friendly smoothies!
