Sneaky Cinnamon Smoothie
"I recently made recipe #245084 which was nice but I found a little bitter for my tastes, to use it up I devised this smoothie. I have a fusspot DD who wont eat vegetables & snuck in a little zucchini too. I know it sounds weird but it blends in easily & you can't even tell it's there, I'll do anything to sneak some veggies in to little miss DD."

Excellent smoothie! Love that it integrates veggies into breakfast. . .perfect for picky toddlers. I did add some flax, a I always do. And my zucchini was frozen which provided great "frost" to the drink. Made for Bevy Tag. -
Definitely an unusual combo of ingredients, but the resulting smoothie is VERY, VERY GOOD! I used 1/3 cup of fat-free vanilla yogurt & 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon for the connamon yogurt! Froze the banana & chopped zucchini before using them & had myself a satisfying smoothie, one worth making again! Thanks for sharing your recipe!

Good! A little weird, but good! lol. I used regular yogurt and added a little cinnamon. And I didn't chop up the zucchini very well, and then neither did my blender for a wee bit or two. My 3-year-old found a small chunk in his glass but he didn't know what it was. lol. Reviewed for ZWT4. -
This is yummy Mandy! Unable to get a zucchini, I peeled and lightly cooked some broccoli stem instead. Weird, but it worked! Great taste. I used homemade soy "yogurt" and a scant 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. What I like most is the sneaky addition of some veggie! Thanks!

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa.
Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks.
As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
