Easy Peasy Smoothies

Fruit smoothies are great for a quick, healthly breakfast on the go or when ever you want a refreshing snack.

I use a Magic Bullet to make mine, but you could use a regular blender if you don't have one.

I freeze large slices of over-ripe bananas in a ziploc baggie just for smoothies.  This way I don't make banana bread out of them all the time!

Strawberry Banana Smoothie

1 banana - sliced

4-5 frozen whole strawberries (I use no sugar added)

1 cup soy milk

splash of orange juice

1 tsp. ground flax seed or wheat germ

Combine ingredients into a Magic Bullet or blender.

Blend for about 30 seconds or until smooth.

Pour into a glass and enjoy.

Serves one.

I drink mine out of a Mason Jar for extra cuteness :)

You may think the spinach and banana smoothie sounds kind of gross, but it's really yummy. You can barely taste the spinach and it's a great way to get a serving of veggies in your diet. Give it a try!
