Toddler Treat





                                      

                                      


Lemmon isn't the pickiest eater but she is a toddler. Which means eating her veggies and sometimes fruits is a battle. Little Spoon reached out to me for their #FirstThousandDays campaign to try out their 100% organic baby blends. Lemmon knows when she sees baby food and it's a no go for her. She's way to cool for that stuff ;-) So, I hid it in a smoothie for her :-) 

I blended it with a cup of almond milk and one baby blend and she was hooked! She got something cool and delicious and I got her to eat some fruits and veggies. Win, Win, right ;-) I am super picky what we keep in the house because I know I have no control over what she eats outside of our house at friends and families homes. Little Spoon uses over 80 organic ingredients, it's delivered straight to your door in a cooler and is designed to go with your child's age milestones. We love it and love that Lemmon can still have it now, in a "big girl" smoothie!
















Protein Chocolate-Peanut Butter Smoothie

I am so excited to share with you all my obsession with my protein shake. I have been drinking this shake for about 4.5 years. No joke! Riley doesn't understand how I have not missed a breakfast without this smoothie. I am obsessed. It took me a sec to find the best protein (for me) and the best peanut butter. But I am confident I have nailed it down. I seriously crave this every morning and have to stop myself from making one for lunch and dinner too!

It took me a bit to find the right protein that wouldn't make me feel sick or didn't have tons of additives in it. Plus, I needed something that made up for the protein I wasn't getting with being vegetarian. I felt like some where to sugary tasting, or had that chalk taste to it or had to many fillers. Orgain Organic Protein is seriously THE BEST!!!! I've only had the chocolate flavor but I am dying to try the other ones (there's a pumpkin spice flavor out right now!) I love that it's all organic, no sugars added and it's vegan! 

Also, the key to not make it taste chalky is peanut butter powder! I've tried a few powders and by far Crazy Richards is the best!!! I've used normal peanut butter, organic, all natural and it will still have a chalky after taste. But Crazy Richards Peanut Butter is THE BEST! it has the right consistency and gives it a more sweet taste. Plus, it's all natural

Definitely let me know if you try it out! I absolutely LOVE this smoothie! It's also great for toddlers/kids just cut your protein in half and do about half of the peanut butter. Lemmon devours this stuff!
