My mornings are busy getting the girls up, dressed, bottled, fed, read to and played with. Before I know it, it is 11am and I have not even had breakfast myself! We all know that breakfast is a very important meal for our brain and body and to kickstart our day! I now make a conscious effort to prepare “breakfast for 2,” well, “breakfast for 3” in our case! 😉
Smoothies are a delicious and easy way to pack a nutritious punch! One of my favorite times of day is sitting down for breakfast with Sophie and Liv! It is never too early to begin family sit-down meals!
Try Sophie and Liv’s favorite “Berry Green Goodness” smoothie AND make a little extra for you, Mom!
Feeling full, fueled and ready to start our day! Now, about those table manners girls…
