RECIPE COLLECTION
“STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE” IS IN:

STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE 
10 oz fresh strawberries, stems removed
2 ripe bananas
3 tablespoons sugar or honey
1 cup ice cubes
3/4 cup milk, yogurt, kefir or coconut water

Wash strawberries and remove banana peels. In a blender, process all ingredients until smooth. For a little extra flavor, a few drops of vanilla or almond extract may be used, but do not overdo as a few drops go a long way.

Cooks Tip: In the Cooks.com test kitchen, we sometimes thicken smoothies with "Thicken-Up" or "Clear-Jel" which is a modifed food starch that thickens without having to be cooked. It is available from restaurant supply stores.

To thicken use a bit of brown sugar and the rest as confectioners sugar (icing sugar) makes it nice and thicker. ALSO use frozen bananas and no ice cubes. My raised beds was dripping with strawberries the other day so made this, delicious! I kind of added a bit of thios and a bit of that and milk and yoghurt etc and ended p with three delicious glasses full. YUM

Delicious!! I always seem to have trouble finding really good smoothie recipes - well this one qualifies! Thank you for sharing it! I altered the recipe slightly. I used: About 6 oz fresh strawberries, 1 banana, 3 tbsp sugar, 1 cup ice crushed ice cubes, and 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt.

I used whole milk and honey. I do not think it turned out all that great. I will try yogurt next time. And I did use frozen strawberries. I will try fresh strawberries another time when I have a box on hand.
