A couple months ago, we had some strawberries. I wanted to get rid of them before they went bad, so I had an interesting idea: throw them in a blender with some ice and orange juice, and have a smoothie! So, I tried it...excellent! My recipe eventually evolved to include a banana, but here it is, fat free, only the natural sugars in fruit for sweetener, and deeeeelicious!

Fill a blender about 1/3 the way with ice cubes. (With my size ice cubes, I use about 10)

Add 5 medium-sized strawberries, frozen or fresh, but unsweetened.

Slice up a banana and put it in there.

Fill about to the top of the ice cubes with orange juice.

Blend on High until completely blended and no large ice chunks remain.

Serves 2, unless you're really thirsty. :D (It usually serves one with me!)

Sounds like an all-natural daiquiri.
