I have never used a fresh pomegranate for anything before, so that was an adventure within itself.  The kids thought the inside was cool/weird too.  It’s fun to have the kids help put all the fruit in and learn along with me.  It also helps them be more “invested” in the creation and they are more willing to try it.

This smoothie recipes came from the HealthMaster book that came with my HealthMaster and got great reviews from my kids.

The thing that is hard with this recipe and some others that we have tried, is that while pomegranates are in season right now, kiwis are not.  So I think I bought 1 kiwi for  $1.50 just for this recipe.
