Lollipop Smoothie

Lollipops®, grown by our friends at Salad Savoy, is a fork-sized vegetable that is a cross between red kale and Brussels sprouts. Just 4 ounces of Lollipops contain twice the amount of vitamin C and b6 than standard Brussels sprouts.

Lollipops are often found on the menu of high-end restaurants and are especially appreciated by those with discriminating tastes. While you might appreciate Lollipops as a side dish or served as a salad, your kids may not. Let’s be honest… kids just don’t flip for green veggies.

But one thing kids do flip for? A cold, creamy smoothie! Lollipop Smoothie has a fun name that kids get excited about, and it can be our little secret that the lollipops in this smoothie are actually nutritious green veggies!
