Banana Coconut Smoothie

2 large bananas (or 3 medium or 4 small) - sliced into 1/8", spread on plastic wrap, and frozen into a "banana plate"
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup soymilk (vanilla, chocolate or strawberry, they are all good)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add the liquid ingredients to the blender first, then add the frozen banana chunks. Blend until smooth. Some fun changes to this recipe are to add frozen pineapple, mango, papaya, or any berries that you have. Be creative :) Another good one is to add half a shredded carrot and a couple spoons of poppyseeds to make a carrot cake smoothie! Or for an orange julius type smoothie replace the soymilk with orange juice and add another teaspoon of vanilla. The options are endless, the only parts that are mandatory to make it super creamy and good are the frozen bananas and coconut milk.
