RECIPE: Green baby smoothie.

Baby Jimmy is all about drinking out of a straw these days, and isn't too interested in being spoon-fed. While he does pick up pieces of food off his tray and put it in his mouth, I want to make sure he's getting enough calories and good fats throughout the day.

This morning, I made 8-month-old Jimmy a green smoothie, blending:

- half a banana

- half an avocado

- 1/4 cup full-fat yogurt

- splash of orange juice

I blitzed it into a very smooth texture using my Magic Bullet, so he could drink it out of a straw.

He LOVED it.

Linna used to slurp this smoothie down too when she was a baby and toddler.
