Recently, one of our favourite afternoon snacks has been a green smoothie. Scott loves to help. First, he heaps several fists full of spinach into the blender with a cup of water to help blend it.
We follow that up with a banana, some yogourt and whichever frozen fruits and berries we have on hand. Scott loves to help by eating the strawberries and mangoes out of the package and pressing the buttons on the blender. The strawberries change the colour of the sludge from a vivid green to something a bit more pink.
You would think that a green drink loaded with spinach would taste a bit nasty, but the banana manages to shroud most all of the spinach taste without crowding out the berries. It's a fantastic drink and much better than munching on a bag of chips in the afternoon.
