Healthy-After-School-Snacks
It's that time of year again. The kids are all headed back to school. I don't know about you... but my boys always come home from school with empty stomachs, and they always want something sweet as an afterschool snack.
I like to make fruit shakes for my boys when they get home. This way I know that they are eating healthy and getting their fruits for the day.
I always keep a variety of frozen fruits in the freezer so that I can quickly throw a healthy treat together!
Today I made a family favorite...
Strawberry Peach Mango Shake
2 cups milk1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 package of each:
16 oz. Frozen Peaches
16 oz. Frozen Mangos
16 oz. Frozen Strawberries
I always thaw out the fruit a bit by either letting it sit out for an hour or two before using or by warming in the microwave for about 2 minutes.
Next throw everything into a blender and blend.
You can add more or less of any ingredient. You can also use Splenda in place of the sugar for fewer calories. Serves 3-4.
