Strawberry Orange Julius Smoothie

cookiedog's Note:

This makes a great breakfast treat, after school snack, or dessert. I just put the peeled half orange in which makes pulpy pieces of orange throughout. If you prefer your drinks smoother, just add the juice of the half orange.

Great recipe! I made this for my three boys ages 6,3, and 16 mos and they loved it! I used 3 small blood oranges (thought next time I will juice them and strain the pulp) non-fat powdered creamer, no egg/egg substitute, vanilla, honey, 6 or 7 large frozen strawberries, and milk. It was a hit, even the baby loved it. Thanks!!!

5 Star - I made this for Little Miss my smoothie loving DD and she enjoyed it very much. I used egg substitute but I really think you could actually leave it out. All the flavours really mixed well together. Thank you RSC #11 Chef

Made this for a breakfast drink for DS and myself. This is very tasty, but felt it could have used the juice of the whole orange and forget the optional water, needed additional liquid but not the water. This wasn't too sweet or require additional sweetner for us. Definitely a great smoothie and good luck with RSC!!!!
