Ingredients:
1 pint fresh strawberries ( or a 10-oz. container of frozen ones, thawed 25-30 seconds in a microwave)
1 large bananas
1 cup of sliced pineapple
1 cup orange juice
1 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 ice cubes
Directions:
Blend first six ingredients in a blender. Add ice cubes 1 or 2 at a time while blending. Serve immediately.
Note: For a creamier smoothie, add vanilla yogurt. For an extra nutritional boost, add protein powder (skip the water and yogurt, though, as it will make the consistency too foamy).
Servings: Serve
