A healthy & simple sweet treat, this smoothie has no added sugar and looks great for Valentine's Day with a sliced strawberry on top!


Strawberry-Banana Smoothie

ingredients:

6 large strawberries (or 18 small strawberries)
3 small bananas (about 2 medium bananas)
4/5 to 1 cup (200 ml) plain yogurt
2 cups (500 ml) ice*

1) Peel bananas, wash strawberries and remove stems.

2) Combine all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth.

3) Pour into two glasses and enjoy!

* ice tip: Freeze water in small ice cube trays just 3 or so hours until not entirely frozen; you'll still see some water in the middle of the cubes. This makes for easier-to-blend ice and a smoother smoothie!

...and you?

Surprise your sweetie (or kids, or friend, or whomever!) with this treat and let me know how it goes. Stay tuned for Thursday's post, a complete menu for Valentine's day including this smoothie and more!

Ooo, sounds yummy! Do you just add vanilla extract?
Oh, wow! Thanks for this one!!! I did mocha smoothies for my niece's Hannah Montana birthday party last year and it was such a hit!
