Yesterday I read a friend's facebook update describing how much her daughter loves spinach smoothies. In my mind I pictured a dark green slurry that only an unsuspecting toddler would ever drink.
But I decided to try it anyway.
I filled the cup (does anyone else find the magic bullet cups super convenient?) half full of fresh spinach, then added yogurt, fresh strawberries, milk, and a few frozen blueberries. And it was good! I tumbled that smoothie on my tongue, searching for the spinach taste, but I couldn't find it. All I could taste was yummy fruity goodness. I let Isabella have a taste -- and she didn't give it back until it was almost gone.
I'm converted!

Bella is absolutely too cute! I will defintely be trying this recipe after your rave review. Can't go wrong with spinach!
That bread looks really good! I wish my kids liked raisins - there's no point in making a whole loaf just for me. I made raisin scones yesterday and the kids picked out every raisin before eating them!

I have to agree with Jen's kids- who likes mushy raisins! But hard and chewy in a chocolate chip cookie- then they're good. Your bread looks great though Sar. And I'm going to throw some spinach in my pink Valentine smoothie tomorrow.
