Fruit Smoothie & Veggie Relish Recipes for Sugar Glider


Let's talk about fruits and vegetable for a minute. When choosing these foods for my gliders I consider a few things. One is the safety of the food. Another is their diet requirements. Lastly, I consider their personal preference.


Safe Fruits and Vegetables

Here are a few smoothie and relish recipes for you that go hand in hand with the HPW diet (please see links for full instructions):

1 cup frozen vegetable mix of peas, green beans, carrots, & corn
1 cup jicama
1 cup sweet potato
4 cups turnip greens
Unsweetened apple juice (if needed)



There are a few other older fruit and veggie recipes. We used to use these in the past.







Relish/ Smoothie



VEGGIE RELISH 
1 32 oz bag mixed veggies, defrosted (birds eye classic is best, no salt, lima beans are debatable) 
4 oz white grape juice or Gerber fruit juice w/ yogurt.
4 tablespoons honey


FRUIT SMOOTHIE 
5- 6 lbs mixed fruit
4 oz juice
2 - 4 tbsp honey
1/2 cup Dannon French Vanilla Yogurt



*We poured the relish and smoothie into ice trays (double batch takes four trays total) and then froze it. Once frozen, we removed from the trays and stored in air tight containers. This made serving them much easier. One ice cube is two servings (which is perfect for a cage with two gliders in it).
