Smoothie is such a magic drink for the mothers of all picky eaters.
A smoothie is a blended beverage made from fresh fruits. They can also contain milk, yogurt or ice cream. In addition to fruit, many smoothies include crushed ice, frozen fruit, honey. You can make a healthy and yummy drink out of anything and kids won't even ask what's inside.
I have prepared this smoothie with rolled oats, almonds and fresh mango. Delicious, quick and filling drink for summer afternoon light meal. My daughter loved it. Not only she loved it, she also clicked a photo and edited it for my post. Thanks dear.
