  • Thanks
    That will save me from cheating on a milk shake! I can use that when I have a weakness for something cold AND sweet Thanks!
  • OMG!! I just tried this as my first smoothie ever and it was soooo good! The kids love it too. I can definitely see this as my new thing. yummmmm!
  • This sounds awesome, thanks!
    BTW, have you ever tried using frozen fruit? I freeze my berries 1st then need less ice.
  • sounds good, i'll have to try it

  • looks good!
    I might try it out sometime.

    But personally I just use 1 cup of sunny d (60 calories)
    and 1 cup of frozen strawberries (40 calories)

    And it tastes great to me!!
  • taste too much like milk...
    I tried this smoothie but I used a tablespoon of pure honey instead. It was a tart taste and I tasted more of the yogurt than anything...I am not a fan of milk products!!!
