There’s a reason conventional wisdom says breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But let’s be real—when you have kiddos, mornings can be hectic, and that’s putting it nicely.
Just like with our cleansers, we like to set our kids up right with a quick and easy meal that loads them up with dark leafy greens. Our favorite is this Kid-Friendly Very Berry Green Smoothie!
This smoothie is full of delicious berries and includes a whole cup of spinach for some (very hidden) green goodness. Throw in some extra fiber from pitted dates, and you’ve got a simple but nutritious start to the day.
Your kids will love it, and you’ll feel good knowing that whatever else happens with their diet today, at least they got in this serving of fruits and vegetables!
Give it a try and let us know how your littles like it! We love hearing from you.
With morning smoothie love,
The Conscious Cleanse Team
