Why make Strawberry Banana Smoothie from a powdered mix when it is so easy to make your own? I don't add yogurt to this strawberry banana smoothie recipe, because the banana makes it thick and creamy.

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

* 1-1/2 cups frozen sliced or whole strawberries (or fresh strawberries)
* 1 banana
* 1 Tbsp. orange juice concentrate
* 1 cup vanilla soy milk
* 1/2 cup ice, if using fresh strawberries instead of frozen

Preparation

1. Place strawberries and banana in a blender, food processor or Vita-Mix Blender. If using fresh strawberries in place of frozen, add ice at this point.

2. Top with orange juice concentrate and soy milk.

3. Puree until smooth.

If using a blender, you may have trouble pureeing the strawberries, especially if they are whole. Stop the blender. Remove it from its motor base. Remove the cover and use a spoon to push the strawberries down into the blades. Replace the cover, and puree until smooth.
