  1. I saw this made on the foodnetwork channel a few days ago and tried it. It's a wonderful recipe, and was glad to see that it was already posted here. It's cold, creamy and dairy free something both my husband and I can enjoy together. The only changes I made was I cut up a fresh banana and placed it in the freezer overnight and also used frozen blueberries instead of strawberries as that was what we had on hand. So many other possibilities and combinations to try. Thanks for posting.
     
  2. A refreshing smoothie with a nice blend of flavors. I made as written using all fresh fruit. I served it over ice for two large servings. Made for 1-2-3 Hits.

  4. I made the full recipe as written for DD and I this morning. Wonderful fruity smoothie and loved that there wasn't any dairy. Next time I would use frozen bananas and strawberries but was great with fresh, just took awhile to get nice and cold. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for Photo Tag Game.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am 30 years old and I love to cook for my family of four.... I am married with two wonderful children.... That is them in the picture above.... It's a little old though.... Wesley will be five in June and Katelyn will be eight in June.... I'm always looking for new things to cook and try out on all of my family.... I'm also a teacher to 17 wonderful 3 yr. olds.... I'm always looking for quick, easy, and wonderful tasting food to fix that my whole family will enjoy... My husband is a picky meat and potatoes man.... SO, any time I fix something new that he likes, is amazing.... Wesley is like his daddy and loves to eat meat and potatoes, but he's also real good about trying other foods.... Katelyn, will eat whatever she can get her hands on.... Katelyn has some special needs and we have to watch what she eats and how she eats.... You can check out her website by clicking our link.... http://www.caringbridge.org/tx/katelyn For fun, I enjoy sewing, scrap booking, reading, and spending time with my kids. I also like to just sit and explore recipezaar. <a href="http://s20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/gertc96/?action=view¤t=PRMRcopy.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b222/gertc96/PRMRcopy.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> My first ever swap.
