Smooth Thing

I know it is winter and cold out, but we are addicted to smoothies in our house right now.  Not only are these blended beverages creamy and delicious, but have lent me a hiding place for all things healthy.  Kade, who won't even look at a vegetable, cheers in delight when he hears the blender running.  "Smoodie! Yay!" Little does he know that the cool froggy-green colored shakes get their hue from *gasp* kale... and the magic powder he gets to sprinkle in his strawberry mango smoothie is probiotic!
Smoothies always become a staple when I hit the diet track.  I use them to replace one meal a day and I'd have to say that they are sometimes the best meal I eat that day (especially when they have chocolate in them).
I don't measure ingredients very often, or ever, so I'll start paying attention this week and I'll post some recipes soon.
