Oh ho hum, another smoothie recipe, right?  Wrong!
This raw strawberry milk recipe is divine. Trust me. The texture is wonderful. Sirova, the recipe’s originator, compares the taste to standard strawberry milk–that thick, syrupy smooth sweetness. Yum! This recipe really does take me back to my childhood.

Do not attempt unless you have a Vitamix, a [...]

I can honestly say that I like this alfredo sauce more than SAD (standard American diet) alfredo sauce. HONEST!
