Why we love it:

Did you know September is Fruits & Veggies - More Matters Month? We could all use more in our diets, so why not toast to your health with this tasty way of sneaking some in? According to the USDA website choosemyplate.gov, this packs 3 1/2 of the five to nine daily recommended servings, helping you easily start your day off on the right foot even if you're still struggling to adapt to a crazy back-to-school schedule.

What you need:

1 banana, cut in chunks

1 cup grapes

1 (6-ounce) tub vanilla yogurt (can substitute vanilla almond or soy milk)

1/2 apple, cored and chopped

1 1/2 cups fresh spinach leaves

What you do:

Place all ingredients into a blender, cover, and blend until smooth, stopping frequently to push down anything stuck to the sides. Pour into glasses and serve.
