NATURE’S BEST: STRAWBERRY-BANANA SMOOTHIE

  I have a few more holiday days, and so far I have enjoyed my smoothie challenge. I think I am going to keep this challenge and make it a lifestyle of one smoothie a day. I was having some guests over for Christmas and wondered what I could offer them. I wanted something sweet as they were coming over with young children. I had excess bananas as nearly everyone who visited this holiday came with a bunch of bananas, and I also had some strawberries. Fantastic, I thought, this would be perfect for a strawberry and banana smoothie. I have read quite a number of articles which highly recommend the strawberry-banana smoothie combination. This great tasting smoothie is packed full of nutrition. It’s especially high in fiber, vitamin C, potassium and antioxidants.

I remember those days when we went on road trips, we usually bought bananas and groundnuts to munch on the way (delicious combo, I must say for those who have not tried it). Bananas are really good for suppressing hunger which is probably why many weight-watchers include a banana to their diet.
