Spinach Smoothie

My goal – to make a smoothie that your baby will love!

The result – this green smoothie filled with delicious ingredients that my own baby’s loved!

Made with 7 easy ingredients—spinach, avocado, mango, bananas, oats, chia seeds, and coconut milk—this flavorful smoothie is naturally sweetened and is a perfect way to introduce your baby to the world of smoothies.

I actually made this recipe for both you and baby! The idea is that you can pour baby their portion of the smoothie into their sippy cup, and you will still have enough leftover smoothie for a small snack/treat/lunch/meal for you;)

Instructions

  • Spinach – fresh baby spinach works but frozen works in a pinch
  • Avocado
  • Mango – fresh or frozen mango
  • Banana – fresh or frozen bananas work well
  • Oats – old-fashioned, rolled or instant oats
  • Chia Seeds
  • Coconut Milk – can also use any plant-based milk or regular milk

Course Breakfast
Cuisine American
Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 4 4-oz servings
Calories 101kcal

Ingredients

  • 1/2 banana
  • 1/4 avocado, peel removed
  • 1/4 cup spinach, packed
  • 1 cup frozen mango
  • 1 tbsp old-fashioned oats
  • 1/4 tsp chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup canned coconut milk full fat variety
  • 3-4 ice cubes
  • ½-1 cup water

Instructions

  • Place all of the ingredients and 1/2 cup of water into a blender.
  • Blend the ingredients together by using the smoothie function on your blender or high speed for at least 60 seconds. If the smoothie is too thick, then add the additional water to the smoothie and blend until incorporated. For most babies, you will want a pretty thin smoothie so they can suck it through the straw. Save the extra thick smoothies until they get a little older.
  • Pour smoothie into a sippy cup and enjoy!

Notes

Age: 8 months and up (or when baby can suck through a straw)
Storage: you can store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours or you can freeze in a freezer-safe container for up to 1 month. To thaw, simply place the container in the fridge the night before you want to serve it.
