McKenna's Shake

The shake is a mixture of
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
1 container DHA baby food
2 oz juice, usually blue or green machine
(if too thick, I thin with water)
We use the disposable cups with a lid and straw.

Favorite Combinations right now:
Vanilla yogurt, with apple vanilla mixed grain baby food and apple juice
Pear yogurt, pear blueberry oat baby food and blue machine juice
Vanilla yogurt, with banana peach granola baby food and green machine
juice

My friend Leigh uses this shake for her little girl McKenna to help her sleep a little longer at night. Due to MCADD she can not go longer than 6 hours without eating. Spencer is in the same boat so I thought I would give it a try. I gave it to both Grant and Spencer and they loved it. I am sold

For Grant's shake I used yogurt, applesauce and juice.

I love how easy it is to make and there is no clean up. No messy spoons or faces from a typical night time yogurt snack.
