1 package (10 ounces) frozen sliced strawberries, partly thawed
1/2 pint strawberry ice cream
1 large ripe banana, peeled and cut up
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Combine strawberries, ice cream, banana, 1 cup of the milk and vanilla in an electric-blender container; cover. Beat until creamy-smooth. Stir in remaining 1 cup milk. Pour into 6 tall glasses. Garnish each with several fresh strawberries threaded onto a kebab stick, if you wish.

Note: If you do not have a blender, beat strawberries with ice cream and banana in large bowl of electric mixer, then stir in milk and vanilla.
