on 7/18/2007 I make them with vanilla ice cream, strawberries and a little bit of ice and/or orange juice. It's delicious!

on 11/22/2005 If you want, you can make a strawberry banana smoothie. It's exactly the same recipe, only you slice up half a banana and throw it in there. That's what I did and it tastes great.

on 11/22/2005 Take some strawberries and one banana; add more of whichever flavor you want to be stronger. Chop the tops off the berries. Then cut the banana into 1/2" pieces. Drop berries and bananas into blender. Add ice. Blend until smooth. Serve.

on 11/22/2005 Use fresh-frozen strawberries or fruit of your choice, add milk banana etc. omit ice. It is great.
