Our elementary students showed off their green mustaches on Tuesday, March 6 after sampling healthy, delicious green smoothies during lunch. It was all part of “Green Mustache Day,” a fun annual activity that ACS sponsors as part of its membership in the AtlantiCare Healthy Schools, Healthy Children program. The smoothies were blended up by ACS middle/high school cooking class teacher, Mr. Dan Carney. ACS will be submitting photos of groups of ACS students with their green mustaches into an AtlantiCare drawing and one of our elementary classes could win a $50 VISA gift card. Here’s Mr. Carney’s special recipe, using a blender, that makes 16 ounces of a healthy green smoothie:
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup diced pineapple
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 1/2 cup coconut water
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
