strawberry peach smoothie

MY LITTLE was desperate to chef it up this afternoon and wanted to make something out of his book, The Complete Cookbook for Young Chefs. We checked out ALL of the yummy-looking recipes and decided we had the ingredients we needed on hand to make this refreshing Strawberry-Peach Smoothie. He wanted to do it all on his own, so I just kept him company and the result was cool, creamy, sweet perfection. Both boys slurped it right up and had nice full bellies [for at least 20 minutes]. I’ll bet you have most of these things on hand, too, so enjoy. xo

INGREDIENTS

1 ripe banana
1 tbsp honey
1 cup frozen strawberries [if using fresh fruit, add ice]
1 cup frozen peaches
1 cup yogurt [we used this]
1/4 cup oj
1 scoop collagen [not in the original recipe, but I add it to ALL of our smoothies]

DIRECTIONS

Add the banana and honey to the blender and whiz until smooth
Add everything else and continue blending until it’s all well combined and there are no big icy chunks
Pour into two glasses and cheers your little helper [or down the whole thing on your own]
