Recipe of the Week: Stranana Orangwi Smoothie

Avatar of Marta-H

Posted June 3, 2010 by Marta Holmberg

In a recent peta2 poll, we asked you foodaholics what you’d like our next “recipe of the week” theme to be, and the winner was the oh-so-refreshing smoothie!

I seriously ♥ smoothies (they’re so easy to make vegan), so I was a wee bit heartbroken when I realized that I’d already blogged my fave smoothie/shake. Luckily for us all, my blender and I are BFFs, so we went on an adventure recently, and the Stranana Orangwi smoothie was born. What the eff is that? Check it out below!

What you’ll need:

  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 2 bananas (de-stringed, for real)
  • 10 to 15 frozen strawberries
  • 1 kiwi, peeled and cut into chunks

Peel your bananas, then toss them into a blender with the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth. Drink up!

Makes 2 smoothies

Yum. I like to have this first thing in the morning, as an afternoon snack, or as a healthy dessert.

So tell me, which is better: this smoothie or my chocolate peanut butter shake?

    I just made this, and it was DELICIOUS. I think I’m in heaven right now, it was literally one of the BEST smoothies I’ve ever had in my life! One thing I noticed though, in the picture it looks like the smoothie is more orange/yellow. When I made it, it was kind of reddish. IDK why though

    I have a home-made smoothie every morning, it’s a great way to start the day.
    I definitely prefer this recipe to the shake but that’s because I don’t like peanut butter!
