If I need to pump calories in him I add a spoonful of coconut oil - can't taste it. I thin it out enough so that he can suck it through his regular straw cups. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/smoothies-1#post-2605110 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 21:49:14 +0000 Alba4 2605110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS lives them. We usually use yogurt, kefir, banana, blueberries, strawberries, peanut butter, and milk. I totally want to add spinach!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/smoothies-1#post-2605090 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 21:16:45 +0000 Charm54 2605090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use this and it's awesome </p> <p>Squeasy Snacker 6oz Silicone Reusable Food Pouch - Aqua <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01A0XA5I8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_1J8Sxb1P8BZ3B" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01A0XA5I8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_1J8Sxb1P8BZ3B</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/smoothies-1#post-2605083 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 21:07:51 +0000 delight 2605083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: great idea to buy thicker straws! I'll have to look for them at the store. </p> <p>I'm pretty boring with my smoothies but DD likes the ones I make. I just put in banana, frozen berries, couple spoonfuls of vanilla yoghurt and some OJ. Sometimes I'll add in spinach or kale if I have it in the fridge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/smoothies-1#post-2605070 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 20:24:27 +0000 twodoghouse 2605070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use plain Greek yogurt, a banana, whatever berries we have in the fridge (usually strawberries and blueberries), and a couple spoonfuls of peanut butter. Then I thin it out with whole milk so it's easier for them to suck it up. I just put them in regular open cups with a straw. When I remember, I grab bags of milkshake straws, which are thicker so it's easier for them to suck the smoothie up. They love to have smoothies for breakfast, then I freeze the extra into Popsicles for dessert later in the day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/smoothies-1#post-2605063 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 20:14:52 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2605063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We freeze ours and have breakfast Popsicles!! Usually Greek yogurt, honey, fruit (generally raspberries), and a handful of spinach or half an avocado. If they drink one we just use take and toss straw cups. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/smoothies-1#post-2605040 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 19:37:41 +0000 erinbaderin 2605040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son loves them - I call them milkshakes. I just use regular cups and straws. We use them mostly as an excuse to get vegetables into him so our most common combination is spinach, strawberries, and a few handfuls of a frozen mixed fruit (mango, pineapple, peaches, strawberries). Sometimes a few scoops of yogurt. I've also found you can partially defrost some baby carrots and throw them in and it's undetectable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/smoothies-1#post-2605023 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 19:20:03 +0000 Bao 2605023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does your LO drink smoothies? If so, what do you put in them and what kind of straw cups do you use for them?</p> <p>DH just started getting into smoothies and of course the girls want what dad has! So far we have only tried strawberry banana and strawberry/banana/blueberry. I need some more kid friendly ideas. </p>
