Kids Favorite (and mine too): Peach-Strawberry Smoothie

August 20, 2010

We are addicted to making smoothies, as usual, nothing new here. My kids make them on their own, throwing whatever fruit we have on hand in the blender. Smoothies make a great breakfast idea or afternoon snack, and since peaches are at their peak, this smoothie is filled with them. We have also included strawberries, Greek yogurt and regular yogurt (I love Fage and Stonyfield Farm), a touch of fresh orange and honey. This drink is so delicious and healthy that your kids will be begging for more.

Summer Drinks for Kids and Adults: Orange Margaritas (with and without alcohol)

July 16, 2010

Okay, so occasionally I splurge and post a recipe that’s not the healthiest, but it’s the weekend, right? Here is a recipe for Orange Margaritas that’s great. I have to credit this beverage to Kay, who makes the best cocktails. We love going swimming at her fabulous pool, and she even makes non-alcocholic versions for the kids. This is a great summertime drink that’s perfect when you want something really easy but special and delicious.

Shirley Temples with Fresh Cherries

July 13, 2009

My three kids are the best, and I try to treat them with something new and different all of the time from the kitchen. I came up with the idea of a healthier version of Shirley Temples using pomegranate-cherry juice 100% juice and fresh cherries. This recipe is so simple, and they love it! It’s perfect for this time of year when cherries are in abundance.
