#4. Green Smoothie Recipe the Kids Will Love
Green smoothies have exploded in popularity in the last few years because it’s a fantastic way to get in your greens without really tasting them. We love the peanut banana green smoothie and the berry green smoothie recipes from MomOnTimeOut.

You can have your chocolate and still reap from the nutritional benefits. Cacao is rich in antioxidants and this NutriBullet smoothie is packed full of peanut butter to keep you fuller for longer! The peanut butter and chocolate smoothie have one of your five-a-day in the form of a banana, just going to show that healthy eating doesn’t have to be boring!
