Younger kids: What color is the smoothie? What do you think made the smoothie that color? Let’s make a list of other fruits and vegetables that are yellow. Do you think they would taste good in a smoothie? Why or why not?

One sip of this smoothie and your kids will think they’ve escaped to a tropical paradise. Pineapple provides just the right amount of sweetness, and the Greek yogurt is full of protein. When making the recipe, use it as a chance to talk about healthy eating and cooking—or your island dream vacation!
