Breakfast Smoothie

What You Need:

• 1 cup plain yogurt
• 1 very ripe banana, cut into small chunks
• ½ cup frozen blueberries
• 1/3 cup pureed squash or pumpkin
• ice cubes, if needed
• milk, if needed

What You Do:

1. Place the yogurt, fruit, and puree into a blender and mix on high speed.
2. Depending on the ingredients used, the shake can be thick like ice cream or liquid enough to drink. You can adjust the consistency according to your child’s preference. If the shake is too runny, add ice cubes, one at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency. If the shake is too thick, add small amounts of milk until it is thinned down.
3. Serve with a spoon (for thicker shakes) or a straw (for thinner shakes). Makes approximately two 6-ounce shakes. Any leftovers can be poured into a glass and placed in the freezer for later.
