I made this for breakfast this morning. I’m feeling like I still want to tweak it a bit, but the boys really liked it as is.

Pecan Pie Smoothie
7 oz pecans
2 bananas
2 dates
1 cored apple w/skin
filtered water
cinnamon to taste

Put all ingredients except water in Vitamix (I don’t think that the apple will blend well in a regular blender, but perhaps if you cut it up small). Add water until container is around 3/4 full. Blend on high for 2 minutes.

The Great Green Smoothie
I’ve learned a few things in my years as a mother. One of them is that something called a ‘spinach smoothie’ isn’t going to get as good reviews as a smoothie with another name!

This smoothie is bright green, which I like to spin as being awfully fun.

1 new coconut
1 date
2 bananas
1 bag of baby spinach

Combine the meat and milk of the coconut with all other ingrediants and blend on high until smooth. Thin with a bit of water if desired.

This one was a huge hit with the baby!

It seems like the boys accidentally got a bit of gluten last night. Looks like I’m in for a long, long day.
