spinach shakes for kids

one night someone really didn't want to eat his spinach salad.  I offered to blend it up (a familiar idea as we make morning veggie/fruit/chia/Greens+ shakes every day) and a new dinner vegetable option was born.

the crazy thing is- the kids are eating SO much spinach this way- dark leafy greens!- yum- and they hardly realize it.  every time one of them drinks 2 cups of spinach it makes me so happy.

here's how we do it:

for 3 kids:

• two big handfuls of baby spinach (i measured it for you this time- about 6 cups)
• one very ripe banana
• about 1 1/2 cups of vanilla almond milk (the sweetened kind)
• blend until completely smooth.  

(i have this blender - which was expensive but we use it every day and it was so worth it)

enjoy!
