Strawberry & Banana Smoothie





This is the first recipe I tried on my October Cookbook Challenge and it was so good I had to share it with you. As with most smoothie recipes this takes no time at all to make so is perfect for a fast, delicious and nutritious breakfast. It is so creamy I'm also going to try freezing it for ice lollies/ popsicles which I just know everyone in the family will love.

Serves 3-4

225g/ 8oz strawberries, trimmed and cut in half
1 banana, roughly chopped
140g/ 5oz natural yogurt
1 ¼ cups/ 300ml milk
1 tbsp honey or to taste

Simply put all of the ingredients into a blended and blitz until it is smooth, creamy and delicious! Perfect for breakfast or a morning snack and great for when you are in a rush and need something to go.

  2. This used to be my favorite smoothie combo! But I think I drank it too much, now I have banana strawberry aversion ;) Very beautiful though!

  3. Sounds like a smoothie I usually make- but I tend to mess up the nice sweetness by adding things like turmeric and flaxseed ;)
