Here is a simple Banana Smoothie Recipe that I like to have for breakfast.
1 large banana
1 medium apple, sliced and cored
4 oz orange juice
Place ingredients in blender, smoothie maker or vitamix and blend until smooth.
Pour in glass and enjoy.
If you have bananas that are starting to get brown you can put them in the freezer in the zip bag. The skins turn black but you can still use the frozen bananas in your smoothies for added thickness and for an ice cream like texture and temperature.
