Try this tasty combination – Kale Pear Green Smoothie Recipe.
Try to give a three-year-old raw kale and you just might have the clash of the titans on your hands.
I know I struggle to make sure every day that my kids adequate nutrition.
And with all of the marketing targeting kids these days it is an uphill battle to encourage healthy eating habits.
I find that while my younger kids may turn their noses up at some of the veggies I put in front of them, they will almost always drink a smoothie that I hand them without questioning what is in it.
You can also get reluctant teenagers to drink a smoothie before school because they are in “too much of a hurry” to eat breakfast.
We tend to get my blender going and have their favorite variety in to-go cups for them to grab and go.
This kale pear green smoothie is a favorite of my kids, regardless of age.
Which I like, because I can whip up a big batch for the whole family which can speed up the process.
I also like to chop up the fruit the night before to save time in the morning,

Yum! I love green smoothies for breakfast. I usually end up with spinach, banana, and strawberry, but I love the idea of using pear and kale.

What does it taste like?
Agreed, it can be hard to get little ones to eat the green. I’ll have to try this out on my 3 year old, he loves smoothies! And I love that it is vegan! Thanks for sharing:)
this looks so good!! I love my morning smoothies, I will have to add this into the mix!
I’ve been drinking green smoothies for the past 6 months and this recipe looks delicious.
By the way, I would love to have you post on my new blog hop—the Weekend Blog Hop at My Flagstaff Home (www.myflagstaffhome.com). It begins on Thursday evenings and lasts through the weekend, if you’re interested.

I have actually done something very similar to this for my daughter (she is 4 now) and I can attest that they DO drink it! I need to do it with maple syrup next time and make it even better than it was! Thank you for sharing with us at the #HomeMattersParty this week!
