By Harini
Here is a very quick and healthy milkshake for those fussy toddlers.It is being quite a task for me to make my daughter have milk.Her taste seems to change every day :)She used to have milk mixed with this powder,but now she is very adamant about color and prefers cocoa brown in all her drinks.So here,this smoothie came to my rescue and today I made it for her,though she had in small quantity she liked it.This also makes a great breakfast for school going kids.Try this and I am sure you will love it :)
