284 Creamy Pink Banana

Backstory: Bought a lot of fresh strawberries on sale.

Initial Thoughts Before Tasting: Time to venture into smoothies!

Ingredients:
1 banana
2 handfuls of strawberries
5 tablespoons natural yogurt
8 tablespoons apple juice

Thoughts After Tasting: Yum! My whole family enjoyed this one. I like smoothies to be a bit runny and so added a bit more juice (from a freshly juiced apple) and a bit less of the yogurt.

Natalie Writes:
..."best in the summer..."

It's a pretty chill day today at 16 degrees C and because all the ingredients (except for the yogurt) were at room temperature, the smoothie was rather warm. Thought it would be amazing in the summer if it was chilled. Even better might be if it could be frozen and made into popsicles.

Cleaning: Quick and easy. The juicer only had 1 apple go through and the blender was a quick rinse.

Star Rating: 4/5
