   Kids Can Help: I love making our sweet treats really count, so when we're at the store, I ask my kids to pick out the fruit they'd like to add to this base. Then they're really excited to eat it, plus they're getting a great dose of fruit. Kids can also help by measuring all the ingredients for you.
