MORE THAN A STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE

First I want to tell a little story, a few weeks ago my husband bought a Vitamix and for those who know this brand will know that this is the most popular blender at the moment, does much more than blending, is almost magical says my daughter.
Well, my youngest daughter was so excited, she loves being in the kitchen with me, we were trying to see what kind of recipe we made first, my precious baby said she wanted a milkshake, I saw her very surprised because I did not know where she had seen that you could make smoothies and I saw that she had the recipe book in hand.
We started to make the smoothie and everyone loved it, my Vitamix has officially become the tool of the smoothies.
I made this smoothie the day that my daughter did not want anything to eat, she has only 3 years so sometimes it is difficult for her to eat.
I try to use fruit that she likes and I add a couple of secret ingredients that nobody would notice. Some times we have to disguise some meals for the children.
This is a unique and fun way to share with family and eat better.
Enjoy it.

MAS QUE UN BATIDO DE FRESA

Primero quiero contarles una pequeña historia, hace unas semanas mi esposo me compro una Vitamix y para muchos que la conocen sabrán que es la licuadora mas popular en este momento, hace mucho mas que licuar, es casi mágica dice mi hija.
Bueno, mi hija menor estaba muy emocionada, a ella le encanta estar en la cocina conmigo, estábamos tratando de ver que tipo de receta hacíamos primero, mi bebe tan preciosa dijo que quería un batido, yo la volví a ver muy sorprendida ya que no sabia donde había visto que se podían hacer batidos y en eso vi que tenia el libro de recetas en la mano.
Hicimos el batido y le encanto, mi Vitamix se ha convertido oficialmente en la herramienta de los batidos.
Este en particular lo hice un dia que ella no quería nada de comer, tiene solo 3 anos así que aveces es difícil que coma. Trate de utilizar frutas que le gustan y ademas le agregue un par de ingredientes secretos que no iba a notar y que para su alimentación son muy importantes.
Esta es una forma diferente y divertida de compartir en familia.
