Imagine my surprise when Little Squirt perked up from his perch in the back seat on an evening ice cream outing and politely told me, "No, Mommy, I don't want ice cream. I want a Strawberry Smoothie." Of course, I confess that we were staring at the Sonic menu when he told me this. We ordered the smoothie, which Little Squirt proclaimed as "delicious" and went home.
As much as I enjoy an evening outing to Sonic, the cost can add up quickly. So I decided to make the smoothies at home in my blender. I bought the strawberries, vanilla yogurt and milk and tried to replicate Sonic's recipe. For whatever reason, Little Squirt decided this morning that he really didn't want to drink the smoothie I prepared. He preferred Sonic's version, which I'm sure is loaded with more fat and sugar than anyone really needs. By the way, I tasted the homemade smoothie, and it seemed fine to me.
So, do any of you have good kid-proven recipes for smoothies?
