Strawberry Banana Smoothie

I was craving something sweet tonight, but didn’t really feel like having an ice cream. I wanted something refreshing, tasty, and really easy to make. So I decided to make some type of smoothie because I had saw ScottySnacks, but didn’t want to get the blender down. So I remembered, that my brother decided to get my Mom one of those Magic Bullets a while back. You know, the one that you see on infomercials all the time? I really think it was his own little obsession, because my brother happens to be a big “foodie” too. (Which should be a blog in itself, because he is an excellent baker at only 19 years old.) Anyway, my Mom happened to give it to me since she really didn’t have any other use for it and I never really need an actual blender. I had frozen a pack of strawberries and raspberries last week, but couldn’t decide what to make with them, so I thought this was the best opportunity to use them. My favorite flavor for almost every dessert is always something that has strawberry. I can never go wrong with it and whatever it is in always tastes good to me. So, I made a very simple Strawberry Banana Smoothie. It was not only very refreshing, but very healthy, because it was only a few ingredients. If you want to make your own Strawberry Banana Smoothie, you can follow my recipe below which is based on one serving size, so add more according to yours:

• Handful of strawberries frozen or fresh (4 to 5 depending on your serving size)
• 1 Banana (cut up to make sure it will blend properly)
• 1 Cup of Ice
• Splash of Orange Juice

You can always change up fruits and different concoctions in your smoothie, so I’m sure this works for most smoothie beverages.

(By the way, this is one of my first times taking pictures with my new camera and I’m very happy with the quality that is coming out of it. Taking pictures of the food up close brings out the color more than before and it isn’t even blurry!)
