Trick your family into getting more vitamins!!!

I just made a blender full of the most amazing Banana-Berry Smoothie! Hidden inside this vat of creamy goodness is a secret ingredient... spinach leaves! My hubby and his brother were surprised to learn the truth, but thoroughly enjoyed their vitamin and antioxidant-rich refreshment! Pulse fresh veggies in your blender and mix into anything...spaghetti, chili, guacamole...smoothies :). No one will ever know! Unless you are like me and after the first taste ask "So, can you guess the secret ingredient?"!!!

Banana-Berry Smoothie

6 large strawberries (fresh or frozen-Costco :))
1 cup of frozen mixed berries (Costco)
1/2 cup of organic apple juice (Costco)
1 cup of organic soy milk (Costco)
1 handful of fresh spinach leaves (Costco)
3 bananas (I have no idea where I bought these :))

Blend and enjoy!

Note: I prefer to use organic when I can, but whatever you have on hand is great! Add and take away ingredients...more or less of whatever...and try blending some fresh carrots in too!!!
