Strawberry Milk Smoothie

Strawberry smoothie ready!

Now that we are enjoying the colorful Spring and hot Summer is fast approaching, we can have a nice treat on a hot day. My kids like Jamba Juice very much. It was not that complicated to make healthy and yummy juice just like them. I started making different flavors of smoothies at home. It turned out to be a big hit with my two boys. Here is the recipe for the strawberry smoothie (with more to follow)....
