I made Christy's Bananarita Smoothie. What wonderful creamy goodness. I had it for Breakfast I love smoothies for breakfast actually i had two glasses of this stuff. I wasn't to sure of adding the lime, but i did exactly as the recipe said and it was a perfect combination it ended up having just a hint of the lime flavor it was so yummy and good. My DH and my oldest son along with me really loved these. I cant wait to get some more bananas so I can make it again. Perfect for a quick breakfast on the run. I used some bananas that i had previously froze they come in so handy and perfect for smoothies. I have froze mine peeled or un peeled both ways are fine. A lot of people have problems removing the peeling once they are frozen but it is pretty easy for me. I just let the bananas defrost then cut of each end and then make a cut down one side and pull the peeling back and that's it. Frozen bananas are great for smoothies, banana bread or muffins.

If I ever get a blog going, maybe I'll post my "serious margaritas" recipe!

2 cups of frozen strawberries, 1 cup skim milk and 2 packets of splenda. This is very refreshing on a hot summer day. Put all in the blender and process until smooth. Strawberries are frozen, do not thaw.
When I'm feeling indulgent I replace the ice and milk with a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream.
handful of frozen raspberries
1 C orange juice
ice cubes
about 1/4 C milk
Blend and enjoy!
