Green Smoothie with kale, cucumber, pineapple and mint – Little Big H

Green smoothies are to H what lollies are to a lot of kids – he absolutely loves them.

Guaranteed if we walk past a juice bar, he will drag me kicking and screaming until he gets one – he loves to choose the ingredients and it has become his little treat after daycare a couple of times a week. 

This one was made up of kale, cucumber, pineapple, and mint.  It is lovely and refreshing and not overly green tasting.  A good intro to green smoothies if your little one is not used to them.  

Enjoy xx
