One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake

I had some berries they weren’t being eaten so I made this delicious berry cake. I had fresh berries but you could also use frozen. This cake is so easy to make, and you only need one bowl.

Apple, Mango, Kiwi Smoothie with Spinach

You can make smoothies out of whatever you find in your fruit bowl. This time I grabbed a kiwi and a mango. My 2 year old wanted an apple so I gave her half and put the other half in the smoothie. I added a handful of spinach as well. My 4 1/2 year old loved this one. It wasn't sweet and it wasn't sour, it was just right. It helps if your mango is sweet of course, and your apple should be a sweeter variety as well. If you want a sour smoothie, use a granny smith.



Apple, Mango, Kiwi Smoothie with Spinach
Makes 1 smoothie

Ingredients
  • 1/2 a medium apple (I left the skin on but removed the seeds)
  • 1 kiwi, peeled
  • 1/2 a medium mango, peeled
  • 1 handful of spinach
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (I'm still using that carton of coconut flavour)
Directions
  1. Place all the ingredients into the blender and puree until smooth. This was a thick smoothie, you could add a little more milk if you want it runnier.
