Ingredients  

  • 1 cup cubed cantaloupe
  • 2 Tbsp breastmilk, formula or water
  • 1 Tbsp flax seeds
  • 3 Tbsp oats

Instructions 

  1. Cut your cantaloupe into little chunks. You can actually save the seeds to roast for a snack!
  2. Combine cantaloupe chunks, breastmilk or formula, flax seeds and oats in a blender or food processor.
  3. Blend! If it's too smoothie-like and you want it more puree/icy-like, add a few ice cubes to get your desired consistency.

Notes

You could also add additional fruits and veggies, like honeydew melon, spinach, squash, sweet potatoes, banana, etc.
