Dr. Sears a pediatrician and father of eight his Article, Brainy Breakfasts about the importance of children getting a good high protein breakfast. What does he suggest? A yogurt and fruit smoothie! Here is his family's favorite recipe.

You can add protein powders and nutritional supplements. We like to add unrefined flax seed oil. Creamy yogurt is perfect to mask the chalky flavor of protein powders. It works better than anything else.

Smoothies made with yogurt are already nutrient dense, so you don't have to add a nutritional supplement.

It can save you money to buy frozen berries, peaches, or mangos in bulk. I get a box of frozen blueberries from a restaurant supplier for under $20.

Freezing fresh fruit is the best way to preserve it. It preserves the most nutrients, much more than canning.

Plus, your favorite fruits can always be in season! The downside to freezing fruit is that it thaws mushy, but that doesn't matter with smoothies because you just throw the fruit in frozen. That way you don't have to add ice.
