EASY 5-MINUTE BANANA SMOOTHIE
Our banana smoothie is extra creamy and fruity. Depending on how ripe or sweet your banana and orange are, you may need to add a little extra honey, so add based on your taste. There are many additions you can make. For a green smoothie, add 1/2 cup to 1 cup of fresh greens like spinach or kale. You can also add more fruit. Add 1/2 cup of strawberries, mango, frozen berries, pineapple, or other favorite fruit.

Tips:
- Use frozen bananas: Frozen bananas are the key to a thick and creamy smoothie. If you don't have frozen bananas, you can freeze them yourself by peeling and slicing them, then placing them in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze the bananas for at least 2 hours before using.
- Add liquid: You can use any type of liquid in your smoothie, such as milk, yogurt, or juice. The amount of liquid you add will depend on how thick you want your smoothie to be. If you want a thinner smoothie, add more liquid. If you want a thicker smoothie, add less liquid.
- Add other ingredients: You can add other ingredients to your smoothie, such as spinach, kale, berries, or peanut butter. Be creative and experiment with different flavors and combinations.
- Sweeten to taste: If you want a sweeter smoothie, add honey, agave nectar, or maple syrup. You can also add fruit, such as bananas or berries, to add sweetness.
- Serve immediately: Smoothies are best served immediately after they are made. If you need to store your smoothie, you can place it in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
