Ryan and I are leaving in 45 minutes for the 3rd Annual Baldwin Park Doggie Derby, where Sadie will race to uphold her title as Doggie Derby Champion. 😀
Since the high in Orlando is 91 degrees today, I wanted to keep my breakfast cold.
A strawberry banana smoothie sounded perfect-o!
I was in the mood to eat, not drink, this morning, and made sure to make the smoothie extra thick so I could enjoy it out of a bowl with a spoon.
My strawberry banana smoothie bowl contained:
- 1 c. frozen strawberries
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 scoop All the Whey strawberry protein powder
- 2 tsp. xanthan gum
- Cold water
- 5 ice cubes
While my smoothie was blending, I also made a batch of apple cinnamon pancakes for Ryan.
Of course I save one little ‘cake for myself!
I’m off to get dressed for a day in the sun with lots of dogs!
Question of the Day
What is your favorite kind of smoothie?
My favorite kind of smoothie is definitely a strawberry banana smoothie. I also love tropical smoothies that taste like piña coladas. 😉

Good luck to Sadie!!!! I can’t really decide on a favourite smoothie right now – there are so many! Generally though, anything packed with fruit (and xanthan gum to make it thick). Have fun today! 🙂

I’m a big fan of strawberry banana smoothie combos, but I also really liked a mixed berry of strawberry, raspberry, and blueberry! YUM! Tastes like summer 🙂

I LOVE smoothies!! Strawberry Banana is probably my favorite too but I had one yesterday that tasted just like a Pina Colada!!! I used coconut milk, banana, and Jay Robb’s pina coloda protein powder… oh my gosh, SO GOOD!

Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says
Good luck Sadie!! My favorite smoothie is chocolate banana- can’t go wrong with a classic!
Lauren says
Have fun today!!!!
Smoothies are awesome, but I can never seem to make one and feel satisfied by this for just breakfast. I usually eat them as a snack or with lunch or something.
My favorite smoothie is one with mango, kiwi, spinach and blueberries!
coffeeismycarrot says
Tropical smoothies that taste like a pina colada are my pick. I also like a good berry mix.
Katie says
My favorite are my peanut butter butterscotch smoothies! 🙂
lacrossegal says
Your smoothies always look soooo good! I’m curious about the xantham gum!!
Hillary [Nutrition Nut on the Run] says
I’m all about the glo-ing Green Monster smoothies lately. Have you given spinach a try?
