Pink Rice Bubbles Smoothie Bowl

'Not this again!' might be a familiar response from your kids. Rather than the classic (but perhaps overdone) cereal and milk combo, swap it for a pink smoothie bowl. Blend strawberries, berries, yoghurt and honey, and layer Rice Bubbles to create a bowl your kids won't be able to say no to.

Serves 1

Ingredients
1 cup of natural yoghurt
1 tbsp maple syrup
¼ cup strawberries and blueberries
1 cup of Kellogg's Rice Bubbles®

Method
Combine yoghurt, syrup and fruit together in a food processer or blender to create a smooth, delicious pink yoghurt that kids will love.
Pour the coloured yoghurt into the bowl to create the base, then add the cup of Rice Bubbles® to fill the bowl.
To add some extra colour and fruity goodness, finish with a topping of diced fruits
If you think your kids are adventurous, try swapping the berries for spinach. Would your kids be brave enough to eat a green-coloured smoothie bowl?

Aussie Kids Prove To Be The Toughest Food Critics

– A third of parents left with hurt feelings over brutally honest food feedback at breakfast time.
– Parents go to extreme lengths to create the perfect bowl at breakfast

'Yuck', 'it's ugly' and 'not that again' are just some of the comments from Australian kids voicing their opinions on their parents' breakfast creations.

New research from Kellogg Australia reveals the majority of parents think their children are the biggest food critics in the family (66%) and describe their opinions as brutally honest with no filter whatsoever (64%).

While many parents tough it out, a third (31%) are left with hurt feelings and others are using tactics such as 'getting them to help make the food' (49%) or adding extra ingredients, such as strawberries, to make breakfast more appealing (38%).

Hurt feelings aside, instead of letting kids pass up on the most important meal of the day, parents are using creative hacks to create perfect bowls for their little ones. Popular breakfast bowl hacks include:
• Drizzling spreads into face shapes on the cereal
• Leaving cereal in hot milk to give it a porridge consistency
• Blending fruit and milk to create coloured milk

To alleviate some of the pressure at breakfast, Kellogg's has teamed up with George Georgievski, known for his creative lunchboxes on Instagram page School Lunch Box, to create his first breakfast bowl series.

There's more than one way to enjoy cereal, and with almost half (40%) of Australian parents struggling every day to get their kids to eat breakfast, and a third (34%) spending more time than they'd like debating breakfast options to eat.
