Sometimes the simple and easy things to make can taste really good and even be good for you. This cold, rich, creamy pick me up, is a way to get some of the daily fruit intake your body needs. I use a convenient little blender that I can put the ingredients in blend, then drink out of the same cup (Nutra Bullet) which makes it really handy and with very little cleanup. Before I got this, I rarely made smoothies because I had to get the blender out, make the smoothie, then clean up the blender and put it all away again. Now I just leave it on the counter make my smoothie rinse off and it is ready to go again. Here is the recipe.

Ingredients

• 5 strawberries stems removed (less if large).
• 1 banana peeled
• 2 or 3 ice cubes. (The smoothie maker above is powerful enough to use whole ice cubes)
• 1 small container of yogurt (I used strawberry yoplait)
• 1/4 to 1/3 cup of milk
• Any Nutritional Supplements you want, if any. (i.e. Protein powder, bee pollen, ginseng powder, etc)

Directions

Add the above ingredients and blend till smooth. It will come out thick and rich and taste awesome.
