Wake-Up Smoothie

Ingredients
  • 1 ripe banana
  • One 20 oz. can crushed pineapple
  • 1 1/2 cups orange juice
  • 2 cups ice cubes, about 12 cubes

Peel banana, break into chunks and put in blender with crushed pineapple, orange juice, and ice. Blend until smooth.

Tip: If you like your smoothies ice cold, put all the ingredients (except the ice) in the blender the night before, refrigerate, and give a quick blend in the morning.



"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4: 6-7

Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
