Try This: Strawberry Milk

As a kid, I constantly bugged my mom to buy Strawberry Quick. The commercials wooed me first, and then I had it at a friend's house. I wouldn't stop talking about it. And now as an older, more mature version of myself, I understand why my mom vehemently opposed -- the sugar, of course.

It's taken me up until recently that I can make my own strawberry milk. All you have to do is blend up some strawberries with your favorite milk...and duh...you can have close to the same thing, only healthier. We have been making it with Unsweetened Vanilla Soy Milk, which adds a nice vanilla taste. It's even better with frozen strawberries (so freeze those super ripe strawberries before they go past the point of no return).

1/2 cup frozen strawberries

1 cup of West Soy Unsweetened Vanilla Soy Milk

Blend until smooth.

**Best to drink in regular cups with straws as strawberry seeds seem to routinely get stuck in sippy cups, which may subject one to an angry toddler slamming their cup on the floor out of frustration (or maybe that's just my daughter's reaction).

It's so simple, so easy and has quickly become an addiction. And many thanks to neighbor Kim who introduced me to this concept during a recent playdate.

A great drink for you and your little one to share on this Mother's Day!

Hi There. I have just been looking through your blog and it is excellent. I have now bookmarked it and will be a regular reader. I especially like the design and the photos. I am a blogger myself and have set up a site called http://www.ifoods.tv where bloggers and foodies can share their photos and drive traffic to their own blog. Would love to see some of your great photos on there! Keep the great work up on the blog. Cheers!
