This delicious blend of ripe strawberries, creamy banana, and tangy orange juice is the perfect way to energize your morning.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
- If using fresh strawberries, wash them thoroughly and remove the green stems.
- Peel the banana and break it into smaller chunks for easier blending.
- In a blender, add the 1 cup of strawberries, the banana chunks, and the 1 cup of orange juice.
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed until the texture is smooth and all the ingredients are well combined. This should take about 1-2 minutes, depending on the strength of your blender.
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add a bit more orange juice and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses.
- You can garnish with a slice of strawberry or banana on the rim of the glass or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top for an extra nutrient boost.
- Serve immediately while cold and enjoy a refreshing and nutritious start to your day!
Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen strawberries for a thicker consistency and chilled smoothie.
- Opt for a ripe banana to add natural sweetness and a creamy texture to the smoothie.
- If you prefer a dairy-based smoothie, you can substitute the orange juice with milk or yogurt.
- Add a handful of spinach for an extra boost of nutrients without altering the flavor much.
- Blend with a few ice cubes if you’d like a colder, frostier smoothie.
- For added protein, consider adding a scoop of protein powder or a spoonful of nut butter.
Enjoy your Strawberry-Banana Breakfast Smoothie as a quick and healthy start to your day. It's a delicious way to incorporate more fruit into your diet and can be easily customized to suit your taste and dietary needs. Cheers to a vibrant and revitalizing morning!
