Cherry Banana Yogurt Smoothie | Mini Chef Mondays

Welcome to the third week of Mini Chef Mondays! I’m on a team of bloggers sharing new recipes that we’ve whipped up with our kids. I do hope you’ll link up with us this week! (See more information at the bottom of this post.) If you didn’t catch my previous posts, we’ve already shared a Chocolate Chip Banana Cake and JELL-O Cranberry Cookies. This week we were inspired by some gorgeous Sunday morning sunlight and decided to make a refreshing Cherry Banana Yogurt Smoothie.
My 7 year old son Warren (my other mini chef) saw Wes and I in the kitchen and didn’t hesitate to join in. (I love how as soon as he sees me with the camera he poses.)
I gave them several different options in which to make their smoothies including frozen dark cherries, bananas, blackberries and mango along with greek yogurt and milk. Surprisingly they both chose cherries and bananas which made my job easy!
They each took turn adding ingredients to our blender. Warren felt extra cool when I let him control the blender.
The best part about smoothies is that they are very hard to get wrong. I’ve never tasted a horrible smoothie before so let your kids have fun in the kitchen experimenting with different flavor combinations. Both of my boys were so excited about the variety of ingredients and getting a choice in exactly what we made.
In the end, these Cherry Banana Yogurt Smoothies were a delicious breakfast and a perfect opportunity to spend quality time in the kitchen together!

Now, I want a smoothie just like this!
Yum! We love smoothies. I think it’s a great idea letting them choose the ingredients.
I’ve never had a cherry smoothie before, but I do want one. Thanks for sharing your recipe with us at Merry Monday.
This is a really healthy smoothie. I like how easy it is to make and I bet it tastes yummy! I will have to make these for me and the kids.
Mmmm! So tasty – I like it better than any strawberry smoothie I’ve ever had, too! I didn’t have any flavored yogurt on hand so I added a couple drops of vanilla extract to my plain yogurt. This definitely going to be a favorite.
