We are in the throngs of swimming in our house. That means late night meets and early morning practices. I’ll admit, it takes a toll. My kids rolls out of bed in the morning exhausted and not wanting to eat breakfast. This is the perfect way to get them packed with protein, vitamins and minerals without them really paying that much attention to it.

Very high in calories! Any suggestions to reduce those other than just dividing into more servings?
Hey,
I am new to smoothies and I am hoping you can give me some advice. This is what I want to put in my blender and I want to make 1 batch and save it and drink a glass each day. Will it lose it’s nutritional value as it sits in the refridgerator?
Ingredients: Kale, spinach, banana, nonfat greek yogurt, and chocolate carnation instant breakfast packet that you mix with milk. I am not sure if that will mix and work for a smoothie or taste like a disaster.
Your thoughts would be appreciated.
