This morning I made a gorgeous fruit, yogurt and granola parfait for my dear William boy. He loves these and I love them because they are super easy to make, healthy and filling.
So wouldn't you know it, as soon as I finished making the parfait- he suddenly decides he no longer likes "sundaes" as he calls them. Really?!? Ugh. Don't you just love when kids do that!
Alright fine. Shredded wheat it is then and I put the "sundae" back in the fridge hoping he might eat it later. Bwahhaha....what was I thinking!! Clearly I forgot who's child I was dealing with here.
Afternoon snack time rolls around and William wants a snack. Crap, I still have this "sundae" sitting in the fridge! Hmmm....how about I stick it in the blender with a little milk and make a smoothie? Genius!!
So in goes the parfait, a little milk and a little more yogurt. Perfection! Necessity is the mother of invention, right? Now I've just created the most awesome strawberry banana smoothie. It tastes exactly like those little yogurt smoothie drinks I sometimes buy for William- organic of course.
So here's how I did it.
Homeschooled Housewife's Strawberry Banana Smoothie
1 cup plain or vanilla yogurt
5 small to medium sized strawberries
1/2 banana
1/2 cup granola
1/4 cup to 1/2 cup milk- depending on your consistency preference
Blend it all in your blender and serve. Yummy!
