Spinach, blueberry flavored coconut yogurt, frozen banana, line juice.</p> <p>Also good is avocado and banana and almond milk. </p> <p>Banana, almond butter, almond milk (or PB and WCM or yogurt,) and strawberries for a PBJ smoothie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1933731 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 21:29:01 +0000 catlady 1933731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We make them all the time and share with LO. We usually do:<br /> - Coconut, rice, or hemp milk (No dairy for LO and we aren't sure about nuts for her yet either but normally we like almond milk too)<br /> - Baby spinach, kale, and/or chard<br /> - One banana<br /> - Handful of frozen fruits, usually some mix of pineapples, mangos, or berries </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1933670 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 20:59:32 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1933670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>banana, apple, (because they are hardy &amp; cheap so we always have them on hand) almond milk, kale or spinach, hemp seeds, chia. they like it when i put yogurt in it too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1933604 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 20:36:50 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 1933604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like kale with banana and coconut milk as a base. Then I will add other fruit depending on whatever we have on hand- pineapple is really good. Sometimes I throw in some flax or chia. The kids will always drink it as long as it is sweet enough. So if for some reason the greens seem overpowering I just add extra honey or juice or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1933590 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 20:31:55 +0000 Tanjowen 1933590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO loves them! He's 10 months. I do a base of spinach, yogurt, 1/2 avocado and add whatever fruit of the day I have on hand. Today's was pear and blueberries. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1933295 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 17:30:20 +0000 Eko 1933295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a LO, but I make myself plenty of green smoothies. I use spinach, carrot juice, banana, orange juice, strawberries, and plain yogurt. Sometimes I will mix in some avocado. I will likely do the same for LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1933213 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 16:51:09 +0000 dolphin 1933213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD loves green smoothies! It's always spinach with whatever fruit I have on hand, so usually strawberries and bananas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1932998 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 15:23:35 +0000 blackbird 1932998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She likes strawberry yogurt with banana....and i'm SURE if i tossed in a handful of spinach, she would not even notice :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1932930 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 14:49:26 +0000 sweet_p 1932930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My go to green smoothie recipe is: spinach, pineapple, banana, white grape juice and ice.

Haha. My typical smoothie is: apple, banana, carrots, celery, cucumber, beet, red cabbage, kale/spinach, chia, hemp, flax. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1932058 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 09:21:22 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1932058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm really lazy about this but I am trying to make one every morning! I keep frozen fruit on hand and add abut a cup of that to about 2 cups of greens, a banana, about a cup of milk, and then if it is too thick I add water. Sometimes I use full fat greek yogurt instead of the milk and use a little more water. I don't really follow a recipe. I usually drink about 3/4 of this and he drinks the other 1/4. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-fave-green-smoothies-for-lo#post-1932009 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 09:00:12 +0000 mrsjyw 1932009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to start making DS green smoothies because he's leafy green veggie intake is lower than what I'd like for him. He usually gets a lil bit of peas/broccli and random mixed veggies that are coupled in with our dinners. But, for the most part, still lacking. I'd also benefit from it too!</p> <p>Does your LO drink green smoothies? Did they like them right away? What are your favorite/your LO's favorite recipes? </p>
