My kids start school tomorrow.They are going into 2nd and 5th grades,And tonight i asked them if they would like to have smoothies for breakfast from now on and to my surprise they both said "yummy we do want smoothies every breakfast" That really excited me because they are about 50% raw but including there raw smoothies will give them a higher raw percentage.I do plan to give them organic peanut butter and jellys for lunch along with all there yummy raw fruits.My kids are not to big on veggies so i don't want to force veggies on them because i dont want to discourage them eating the fresh foods they are already eating.Then for dinner they normally have a fruit salad(sometimes a salad if i can convince them) and a small sad side,We are getting there slowly but surely.

You might try an alternate nut or seed butter. My daughter is allergic to peanuts but she loves pumpkin seed butter and jelly sandwiches.

That's so exciting. I also get really excited when the kids ask for healthy foods. This week all five of my kids have been having green smoothies every day!! Some even ask for seconds!!They've come along way.

Do you have a brand of pumpkin seed butter you suggest or do you make your own? I haven't seen it sold anywhere.
