7 Delicious Strawberry Smoothie Recipes



Are you a smoothie lover? Looking for some new smoothie recipes that use strawberries? If so, I would like to share 7 of my favorite strawberry smoothie recipes with you.

Let's take a look at why strawberries are good for you. Strawberries are high in Vitamin C and a great source of dietary fiber. Strawberries may help to prevent heart attacks, strokes, cancer and Alzheimer's disease.

All of these smoothie recipes use strawberries, along with some additional ingredients. If you are looking to cut calories, you can substitute the milk with skim milk, or the ice cream with low-fat yogurt.

If you like your smoothies really sweet, try adding 1-2 tablespoons of honey to your recipe. I always serve my smoothies in a chilled glass, but you can serve them any way that you like. You can drink them straight from the glass, use a straw or eat them with a spoon. It is best to always serve your smoothies immediately.

Strawberry Mango

1 c. fresh or frozen strawberries, sliced
1/2 c. mango, cubed
1/4 c. orange juice
6 ice cubes
1 tsp. honey, optional

Place all ingredients into a blender and blend well. Makes 12 ounces.

4 lg. fresh strawberries, sliced

Strawberry Frost

1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (8 ounce) container plain yogurt
6 oz. frozen strawberry juice concentrate

Lemon Strawberry Crush

1 1/2 c. low-fat milk
1 1/2 tsp. lemonade-flavor soft drink mix
1 (8 ounce) vanilla low-fat yogurt
1 c. frozen strawberries
1 cup of ice cubes

Mix all of the above ingredients in a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. Makes 4 one-cup serving.

Strawberry Sherbet

You can make these smoothie recipes for breakfast, or as a healthy snack. I hope you find these recipes just as delicious as I do.
