Instructions
To Make Freezer Packs
- Place all of the ingredients listed in the FREEZER PACK section into a ziplock baggie or stasher bag. Press out all of the air and seal. On the outside of the bag make sure to label the smoothie flavor and what you need to add into the blender along with the smoothie contents. Freeze overnight or for up to 6 months.
To Make Smoothie
- Take the frozen smoothie bag out the freezer and let sit on counter for 5-10 minutes. Then add all the contents of baggie to a blender as well as the milk and honey. Depending on how thin your little one likes their smoothies you may need to add a couple more tablespoons of milk to the smoothie while blending. Blend for 1-2 minutes on high speed until completely smooth.
