Strawberry Banana Smoothie Recipe to Liven Up Your Morning

This strawberry banana smoothie recipe is in partnership with Tervis, but all quirkyness and briliant ideas are my own.

I have a confession to make. On this blog it seems that I spend a lot of time making confessions. That’s what I do; air all my “dirty little secrets” out there for the world to see. Yup, I’m an open book. (TANGENT ALERT) Back on track, what’s my confession? I am not a breakfast person. Ok, let me correct that. I’m either a full on breakfast spread with pancakes and bacon and coffee with fancy little creamers, or I’m a “coffee counts as breakfast” kinda gal. That’s how I am with most of the things in my life, all or nothing.

Since my fibromyalgia diagnosis, I’ve really been working hard on my health and that means coming up with ways that I will actually eat breakfast on a regular basis. That’s where this strawberry banana smoothie recipe comes in to save the day. While I’m still trying to work on the chaos in the morning, I figured I would come up with a quick and easy breakfast smoothie recipe that you can literally throw in the blender and 30 seconds later breakfast is served! Plus, as a super special treat to you I’ve even found some kick butt cups that will keep your strawberry and banana smoothie cold on your way into work/school/play.

Technically, this recipe isn’t just a strawberry banana smoothie recipe. It’s actually a super sneaky way to sneak in some greens into your diet as well. Shhhh, it’s our little secret!! There’s no need to let the family know. Trust me, they won’t taste it, but by adding a little kale (or spinach) to this strawberry and banana smoothie recipe, you can make breakfast super healthy and quick. Personally, it’s taken me a while to learn to eat more vegetables, and there are still some greens that I just can’t stomach to eat by themselves. Smoothies are my number one trick to get some extra vegetable in my meals. Hide veggies in a strawberry banana smoothie recipes, and you get the greens with out the green face!

Before we get to the awesome strawberry and banana smoothie recipe, I want to share with you a FUN way to keep your smoothie cold! We recently had a chance to check out some of the new Tervis stainless steel travel mug! This is their brand new line of tumblers. We’re lucky enough here in Minnesota to have a Tervis store in the Mall of America, so the family and I are already familiar with their customizable tumblers! They have everything from Star Wars to Harry Potter travel mugs to Vikings Football Team travel tumblers!

What makes Tervis so awesome? Well, first and foremost they have AWESOME designs. One of my  favorite things in the world are dragonflies! Lucky duck that I am, Tervis has a stainless steel drinking tumbler with dragonflies on it! Not only can I rock my awesome with my new tumbler, but my Tervis tumbler keeps my hot drinks hot and my cold drinks cold. They keep cold things cold for 24 HOURS! And when you want something hot to drink these great travel tumblers keep your hot drinks hot for up to eight hours! (That’s for both the new stainless steel tumblers or the classic Tervis tumblers!!)

All of Tervis’s products are made in the USA, and they have an awesome line of customizable tumblers, sippy cups, mugs, wine glasses (yes, WINE GLASSES), and more!  Each and every product in the Tervis line is also backed by a 100% lifetime guarantee. That means if your tumbler cracks, dings, or splits they will replace it for you! That’s how much they stand behind their work! If you are ready to get your hands on your very own Tervis tumbler, then make sure to check out all the Tervis travel tumblers here. 

You can grab your very own dragonfly stainless steel tumbler here, and your own Star Wars Tervis Tumbler here. Or if you are feeling creative, customize your own drinking tumbler from any of the line of Tervis products!
