This quick and easy Blueberry Banana Smoothie is a great option for breakfast, snack time, or even dessert. (Frozen banana will create a slightly thicker smoothie, so if you plan to serve this through a straw, I recommend doing either frozen blueberries OR bananas, but not both. See the Notes at the end for more tips.)
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend on low for about 30 seconds. Increase the speed to high for 30-60 seconds or until very smooth.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge and use within 4 hours. (Shake before serving.)
Notes
For babies under the ages of one, use nondairy unsweetened nut or seed milk.
Try a few tablespoons of avocado or 1/2 cup of frozen mango or mashed roasted sweet potato instead of banana.
If the smoothie is too thick for your little one to drink through their sippy cup or straw, stir in a little water or milk to thin.
Try a few fresh or frozen raw cauliflower florets, baby kale, raw zucchini or raw summer squash in place of the spinach.
Use one fresh and one frozen fruit for a not-too-thick smoothie that's easy for kids to drink through a straw.
You can use half yogurt and half milk to add probiotics.
This smoothie is best served on the day it's made, though you can make it ahead and store it in the fridge for up to 4-6 hours in an airtight container or reusable pouch.
