This smoothie has a full serving of fruits and vegetables that meet the requirements for the national school breakfast program. This program requires half a cup of fruit or vegetables and whole grains.
You can easily add in extra fiber in your smoothie by adding rolled oats and chia seeds into the smoothie.
