Summertime Strawberry Smoothies


1 Medium banana
1 cup apple juice
1 10-12 oz package sweetened frozen strawberries ( or 1/2 cups fresh)
8 ice cubes
4 oz vanilla yogurt (optional)

In blender on "drinks" speed, blend banana and apple juice. (If you've got bananas past their prime, this is a great way to use them, especially if your freezer is already full of banana bread!) Add strawberries and blend them until smooth. Add ice cues, one at a time, until thoroughly blended. You can also add vitamins (liquid works best) or bee pollen to make these smoothies even healthier. Brea's secret ingredients: 1 Tablespoon honey and 1 Tablespoon sugar.
