I made a lot of smoothies when Angela was young but I didn't know to put the
veggies in there then. I used Emeril Lagasse's method. Frozen berries,
banana, yogurt, honey and a little milk to thin if needed. Then one day
both she and my husband got burned out on them and they never had them again
until we moved here and all the kids at the dance studio were drinking Jamba
Juice. We bought a few of those but they're kind of expensive and IMO not
all that healthy.
