When to Introduce:  10-12 months (always check with your pediatrician)

 

Ingredients:

2 cups sliced kiwi (I cut out the seed section only because I find the seeds, when pureed, add too much kick! But that is optional :)

1 cup chopped fresh pineapple

1-2 bananas

2 cups fresh baby spinach

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup coconut (or regular) water (to thin)

Directions: In a blender, combine all ingredients.  Cover and blend until smooth.  

Servings: Fills approximately 3-4 Little Green Pouches

Stars: Spinach is a great source of Calcium and contains Vitamin A, Iron and Selenium. Bananas contain potassium and fiber and are also high in Vitamin B6, Vitamin C and Vitamin B2. Kiwis are rich in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, fiber, potassium and even folate. Pineapple has a good amount of potassium, vitamin B1 and vitamin C. Coconut water is high in electrolytes, chlorides, potassium, and magnesium and has a moderate amount of sugar, sodium and protein. Coconut water is also a good source of dietary fibre, manganese, calcium, riboflavin and vitamin C
