Chocolate power smoothie

Tonight Xander requested a chocolate smoothie for dessert, so I did my best to be up to the challenge.  I browsed quickly online (cookbooks are so passe!), and decided to go the healthy route versus the chocolate ice cream route.  I adapted this one from something I found on a spirulina website, and it worked - everyone had seconds!

2 bananas

2 cups strawberries

1 cup spinach

3 cups milk

a dash of cinnamon

lots of honey

3 tablespoons Nesquik powder (maybe next time I'll go for chocolate syrup)

And here's a big moment: Xander found out the identity of my secret ingredient!  He asked if I was going to put in "the green stuff," and I said, "Sure, you mean the spinach?"  Then I waited for his reaction.  Instead of acting grossed out, he just said, "OH!  That's spinach?!  I thought I didn't like spinach."  To which I replied, "Nope, you love it. You just asked for it."  And he smiled happily, and we went merrily on our way.  :)
