Getting kids to eat healthy can be a bit of a chore sometimes. Okay, a HUGE chore. I've had to come up with some creative ideas over the years, and this time of year some creative names for the greens I make them eat. Several years ago we made these Halloween themed smoothies.
This year, we're making a Purple People Eater Smoothie. Grab the mason jar again, it's time to make a monster!
Since my kids are terrible about eating their fruits and veggies, I like to sneak a little more into their food. I found these MegaFood Kids Nutrient Booster Powders to be great for doing that. MegaFoods is a pioneer in the natural products industry and was one of the first companies to start making their vitamins and minerals from scratch using farm fresh whole foods.
These booster powders can be slipped into anything making it easy for kids to get the nutrients they need. We put them into our Purple People Eater Smoothie, but they are completely OPTIONAL!
