Recipe:

  • 2 medium bananas frozen
  • ⅓ cup walnuts
  • ⅓ cup whole rolled oats*
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 cup baby kale or spinach
  • 2 cups unsweetened cashew or almond milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (optional)
  • ¼ cup ice optional

If your child has a particularly sensitive pallet and adverse to eating greens in their usual state, it is a good idea to add much less kale to begin with. Once they enjoy drinking them its much easier to add a little more over time.
