As you know, my blender has been literally MELTING!  A few days ago, drinking a delicious smoothie, I felt a hard piece of PLASTIC in my mouth. It had melted off the blender and mixed its way into my smoothie! That was the last smoothie I made on that blender.  So while the fight is still going with my husband about me buying a Blendtec, and I couldn’t use my blender, I bought a $50 Oster blender from Costco… and I LOVE IT.  And my husband LOVES that I love it.  I learned from that, start high of something you want, and he’ll be ecstatic when you make a purchase for less.   Next I’ll try some $400 shoes and maybe he’ll be glad when I end up with $50 shoes!!

Now that my kids are drinking more smoothie’s, I had been contemplating stepping it up a notch and adding some Super Food mix-ins.  Like wheat grass and powdered vegetables.  I was hesitant though, because it isn’t cheap, and I didn’t want them to pour it down the drain. 

Then I found Amazing Grass who had a Kidz line.  They agreed to let my kids try some of their products, and I couldn’t be happier!  We’ve tried their chocolate powder and their berry powder.  It has

• greens like Kale, peas, wheat grass, barley grass, asparagus, alfalfa, broccoli, sprouts, lima beans, green peas, kiwi, spinach, brussel sprouts, and zucchini.
• Oranges like apricots, carrots, mangoes, sweet potatoes, pineapple, tangerines, yellow squash.
• Reds like pomegranates, Raspberries, guavas, cranberries, red cabbage, cherries, and tomatoes.
• And Blues/ purples like beets, plums, grapes, and more!!

GYMNASTICS ENERGY

The berry powders I’ve added straight to the smoothie, and the chocolate powder I added to some warm milk.  My kids drank it as fast as they did drinks without add-ins.  AND ASKED FOR MORE!!  Flip-flopper has been asking for a smoothie every morning since I’ve been adding the powder.
