Recipe: coffee/banana smoothie

I haven’t tried this recipe yet, but simply must…..

I love coffee.  Dark and rich, the flavor is unmistakable.  I love the smell of it brewing and I think I like the color too.  I have heard coffee has the ability to kill an appetite dead in its tracks.  This could be a perfect example of “better living through chemicals” with caffeine doing the heavy lifting, but that’s a beautiful thing too.

And bananas.  Who doesn’t like bananas?  Banana splits and banana shakes.  Bananas on your morning cereal.  Natures perfect fruit.  A banana will also help assuage hunger with its 3 grams of fiber, and they are so easy to eat!

Combine the two using this recipe, and what do you have?  Perhaps it should be called: Magic in a Glass.
