Yogurt is calcium-rich and probiotic, necessary for a healthy gut and immune system. The potassium (found in bananas) works efficiently to aid calcium absorption, leading to strong teeth and bones for baby. The blueberries add an extra boost of vitamin C (for healthy immune system) and vitamin K (for healing cuts and grazes), and the ginger is wonderful for digestion.
Total preparation time: 3-4mins, makes 1 serving

- 1 banana – peeled, sliced
- Handful of blueberries – fresh, washed, halved
- 2-3 tbsp plain unsweetened yogurt
