Easy Lunch for Picky Babies

Some babies just don't want to eat their fruits and veggies. Some parents just don't want to have that fight with them. Some parents just may not have the time to make a freshly prepared lunch everyday! Whatever the reason, here's what my daughter had for lunch today. Thought I'd share for those who are into making smoothies.

We don't make smoothies often because I believe it's more beneficial to eat your food. But in her situation (lacking her molars to chew just yet), it's a great way for her to get some greens into the diet without her choking! 

I used a NutriBullet to blend. This one is loaded with antioxidants (great for teething babies to reduce inflammation) and is very filling with the rice/oatmeal cereal. 

Ingredients:

-2-3 oz of water or almond milk
-3 strawberries
-3 small blocks of cut pineapple
-1 oz Xocai Activ 
- half of a ripe banana
-1 tbsp organic rice or oatmeal cereal
-2 handfuls of mixed organic greens

Blend until it's smooth. Taste test first! If you don't like it, chances are the baby isn't going to either!
