Unlike my husband, I’ve always been more of a milk shake/ice cream lover than a smoothie lover.  In fact, I didn’t think I really liked smoothies that well.  But that all changed one night when my mother-in-law made this Easy Fruit Smoothie.  The moment I tasted it, I was sold!  It was just so delightfully refreshing!

This smoothies is so easy and delicious that it has become a Sunday evening dinner staple.  We have fun using a variety of fruits to create new flavors, although our current favorite is a blueberry peach combination (pictured above)  I also love adding in things like spinach, kale and chia seeds to pack our smoothie with even more nutrition.  My kid’s love their smoothies and think they are a treat.  They have no idea that they are enjoying something super healthy or drinking spinach.  I love being sneaky like that!  🙂
