Students in K to 5th grade showed off their green mustaches during lunch on Wednesday, March 6 after sampling healthy delicious smoothies made green with spinach. March is National Nutrition Month and “Green Mustache Day” is a fun annual activity that ACS sponsors as part of its membership in the AtlantiCare Healthy Schools program.
The smoothies were blended up by Mr. Dan Carney, who teaches our middle school and high school cooking classes. ACS will be submitting several photos of groups of students with the best green mustaches to AtlantiCare to be entered in a drawing and one elementary class 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. Enjoy!
