Wow, what a poor little beat-up recipe! Check out these reviews. One person hated the idea that it calls for food coloring. Huh. One person thinks that it tastes - impossibly, look at the ingredients - like *flour*. Another person is obviously bored and wants to insult someone. A couple people think it's not sweet enough - okay, I might buy that. I made this exactly as written this morning. A perfectly decent strawberry-banana smoothie, a little heavy on the cinnamon (which I thought was interesting rather than offensive). My fruit was quite ripe, so the sweetness was perfect for me. Mine is just another opinion. Thanks for the recipe!

I'm sorry but the minute I read that the recipe called for food coloring I had to say something. A smoothie is a drink made with fruit so don't go and mess it up with something like that.

If I could give this recipe a lower star rating I would. I love the strawberry-banana flavors together, but with a recipe like this, I think this person should be banned from any kitchen anywhere.

My daughter made this because she was craving a smoothie and it was easy to make. She said it tasted like flour. We had to add more strawberries and some vanilla extract to even make it drinkable. Sorry, not a good one for us.

This was great! I added extra strawberries and some orange juice. That gave it a little extra flavor. I wanted it to be thicker so I added ice. I highly recommend it.

I made this smoothie twice; the first time, I did it exactly like the recipe said and it wasn't creamy enough. The cinnamon made it taste weird. The next time I left out the cinnamon, and added some vanilla ice cream, cool whip, and sugar and still didn't taste right.
