7 delicious strawberry smoothie recipes

Are you a smoothie lover? Looking for new smoothie recipes that use strawberries? If so, I’d like to share with you 7 of my favorite strawberry smoothie recipes.

Let’s take a look at why strawberries are good for you. Strawberries are rich in vitamin C and a great source of dietary fiber. Strawberries can help prevent heart attacks, strokes, cancer, and Alzheimer’s disease.

All of these smoothie recipes use strawberries, along with a few additional ingredients. If you’re looking to cut calories, you can substitute skim milk for milk or skim yogurt for ice cream.

If you like really sweet smoothies, try adding 1-2 tablespoons of honey to your recipe. I always serve my smoothies in a cold glass, but you can serve them however you want. You can drink them straight from the glass, use a straw, or eat them with a spoon. It is best to always serve your shakes right away.
