Ingredients

Liquid Base

  • ¾ cup no-salt-added bone broth
  • ⅓ cup ice

Fruits

  • frozen banana
  • 2 tablespoons frozen blueberries
  • Sliver of avocado

Additional Ingredients

  • ½ tablespoon ground flaxseed (Spectrum Essentials Organic recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons kefir (or substitute with favorite yogurt)
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
  • Big handful spinach

Instructions

  1. Add ingredients to the blender: Place bone broth, frozen banana, blueberries, ground flaxseed, kefir, peanut butter, avocado, spinach, and ice into the blender.
  2. Blend until smooth: Blend all ingredients until the mixture is silky smooth, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure even mixing. A powerful blender such as a Beast blender is recommended.
  3. Pour: Pour the smoothie into a toddler-friendly cup or glass.
  4. Serve immediately: Serve the smoothie right away to enjoy the best flavor and texture for your toddler.
  5. Tips for littles: Use low-sodium or homemade bone broth since store-bought versions can be salty.
  6. Adjust liquid for tolerance: Bone broth can be rich; start with 2–4 oz of broth combined with water or milk, then gradually increase as your toddler tolerates it.
  7. Serve cold: Serving the smoothie cold helps mellow the flavors, making it more appealing for toddlers.

Notes

  • Use low-sodium or homemade bone broth to keep sodium levels suitable for toddlers.
  • Start with smaller amounts of bone broth and dilute with water or milk if needed.
  • Serve the smoothie chilled for best taste and texture.
  • You can substitute kefir with your toddler’s favorite yogurt as desired.
  • Adjust ingredient quantities based on toddler’s age and dietary needs.
