We’ve gotten creative with our smoothies this summer. Our standard Sunrise Smoothie is a classic, but sometimes my kids can’t decided what they like better. I’m really trying hard not to make a million different smoothies in the morning (to try to cater to everyone’s wants), but it’s a little hard. I’ve gotten really good and making two different, yet serving them in the same time!
I used to just put one on top of the other, but I love putting a small layer of yogurt in the middle. My boys thought I was just the coolest the first time I did it. And mom’s need to collect “cool points” whenever they can get them!
This truly can work with any mixture of smoothies you and your family like. That’s the magic of smoothies, right?
