My two-year-old requested a smoothie for lunch. I am not a whiz with smoothies. I have simply followed a random recipe that I found a long time ago which included yogurt, juice and fruit. We have no yogurt. He really wants a smoothie. I have a container of extra firm tofu. Hmmm. No. So, I got out the blender and added the following: 1 banana, 1 sheet of nori, 1/2 bag of frozen berries (strawberry, blueberry, raspberry mix), a splash of Gerber White Grape Juice (the baby isn't drinking it fast enough and I don't want it to go to waste) and half an avocado. Mix. Taste. YUM! If you could only hear the sound of the straw sucking up the remnants in my son's just-about-empty cup...

Oops. I forgot to include that I added a can of unsweetened pears that I've had in my cupboards since early 2009.
