Strawberry and banana smoothie

Spring is here and we can see the changes in the nature everywhere: the sky is blue, trees are green and a mild wind is blowing. Even though in some parts of Barcelona there is no such a huge difference in the nature between winter and spring, there is some special energy that comes with spring and everything starts to look prettier and better.
Just before the spring comes, lots of people decide it’s time to eat healthier, to include more fruits and vegetables in their diet and to start exercising so they can be ready for the bikini season. I personally don’t have that kind of problem cause I always try to eat healthy and I love to exercise, but when spring comes I decide to eat more fruits and make lots of colourful smoothies every day. And colours are good for our mood, right?
I read an article about smoothies and how they are falsely considered healthy because of lots of added sugar. Well, this recipe doesn’t have that problem cause all ingredients are natural, naturally sweetened with bananas and dates and it’s 100% guilt-free.
