Being healthy is of course always a priority but convincing toddlers to even consider something that they visually don't even find appealing is an immediate roadblock. So naturally when my 2 year old drank in its entirety, a green smoothie, I was shocked. I had to figure out the recipe and recreate. We made our own version at home and the response was just as rewarding as the first time. 129 calories per serving. Makes 4 servings.
Ingredients:
1 C water
1 scoop Vega Vanilla Protein (from Costco) 1/2 medium ripe avocado, peeled & pitted

What I LOVE about this particular protein powder is how much its packed with!
