This shake produces lots of ooohs and aaahs as little fingers hit the blender button. Kids think it’s fun to see the bright pink colors they create in this easy breakfast or snack beverage. Little do they know it’s also providing them with vitamin C, vitamin A and other key nutrients for energy and health. To freeze bananas, first peel them and wrap in plastic wrap before stashing in the freezer.
