102_1284 I made green smoothies for my kids today. Since it was nice and thick I called it ice cream. They were so excited that they didn’t even ask about the green colour. They both eagerly asked for seconds!

Here is how we made it:

  • 4 spoonfuls of Orange Juice concentrate.
  • 2 cups frozen strawberries.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Usually I want to add sugar to smoothies but this tasted really good without the sugar!
