Calorie Booster Recipe

True. There are too many people - adults and youth alike who are overweight and obese. There are also families with youth who are struggling to gain or maintain their weight for proper growth. For these kids (even the picky ones) I have a recipe that is sure to win over their taste buds!

"Yogurt Smoothies for Kids" from my book Nurturing with Nutrition

There is no need to add protein powder; Carnation provides good vitamins and minerals.

1 cup fruit
1 cup yogurt
1/4 package vanilla Carnation instant breakfast

Blend in a blender or food processor. Serves 2.

*Fun Tip for Picky Eaters: Serve in a fun cup with a colorful swirly straw.
