Fruit Smoothie

Strawberries are in season again. Well, they never are out of season only at this time they are redder and sweeter. I got me a pack from the grocery last Friday and forgot about them when I came home. :D I planned to make something of a cake base with gelatine and strawberries on top but was too lazy that I ended up with this Smoothie.

Trouble was, I can't find a part of our blender when I was preparing so I had to improvise. ;) I don't have yoghurt  so i scratched it off. I put an overriped  banana in the fridge and used it as 'replacement' for ice cubes. I used a regular mixer and thank goodness the contents didn't get wild: thrown all-over the kitchen.

So voila! I therefore conclude that from strawberries and a frozen banana and some milk, you can make your own healthy smoothie in a few minutes. Remember smoothies are a great source of fiber and vitamin C and is a good antioxidant as well...

Note:

For a basic (and real) smoothie, use -
# 1/2 to 1 cup fruit
# 1 cup plain or fruit yogurt
# 1/2 cup fruit juice
# about 4 ice cubes

Combine all the ingredients in a blender. Process on high until the ice is completely crushed and the drink is smooth and creamy.
