Why I Give My Baby a Smoothie Every Morning

I give my 9 month old baby a smoothie every morning!

Why? Because it’s filled with lots of nutrients and it’s an easy way to get fruits and vegetables into her diet first thing in the morning!

She absolutely loves her smoothies and will drink the whole thing. I make them for myself too!

I always buy bags of frozen fruit for our smoothies and freeze my spinach too.

Here is one of our favorite combinations:

• 2 cups almond milk or water

• 2 cups frozen berries or fruit of choice

• Handful of spinach

• 2 scoops peanut butter

• Chia seed

• Flax seeds

• Protein powder (I add this after I pour some out for my daughter)

I love smoothies too because you can make so many variations! My daughter also loves to eat fruit and veggies with meals so the smoothie is just another added bonus of nutrients.
