Its ski week here in California and instead of skiing we are hanging by the pool enjoying this blissful 80 degree weather.
Whoo hooo!!!
This is a short but sweet post as I am taking a break from cooking and the computer this week to spend some quality time outdoors with the kids. I am showcasing a smoothie rather than warm comfort foods as it feels like summer over here and honestly because I have been feeding my kids to much of this.
We made an afternoon pit stop at Ghirardelli the other day.
I figured a healthier mid-afternoon snack was in the works for the kids. I saw this smoothie recipe the other day at Yummy Mummy and knew it would be something sweet to take care of my kid’s sweet tooth but also healthy at the same time.
It got the kid approval so here you go…
- 1 cup frozen or fresh blueberries- if using fresh then you will want to add some ice
- 1/2 cup pomegranate juice – I used 3/4 cup as I used 2 cups of spinach in the smoothie rather than 1 cup
- 1 cup spinach - I used 2 cups of spinach here
- 1 banana

80 degrees? Lucky lady. It’s cold & wet here. The smoothie looks tasty.

I am obsessed with juicing lately so I love the idea of your spinach smoothie! I definitely need to give this a try – it looks delicious! So glad I stumbled upon your blog – it’s wonderful!
