Okay, this and the comments sounds VERY good. However, I'm the only one to drink a smoothie. Can this be frozen for future use?Thanks!

I made it the same as the recipe and then made a few changes the next time.. I used berry blend from Gordans, the drinkable yogurt in place of milk, and it needed no sugar at all.. delicious both ways..

I use Splenda, cut milk to 1/2c add yogurt and 1/2 banana and low calorie and good for you.

If you use Splenda instead of sugar, and skim or 1% milk, that cuts down on calories too!

I make a wonderful smoothie also.Take 1/2 cup orange juice; 5 ice cubes; spoonful of peanut butter (organic if you have it); 1 banana; whatever fresh fruit you have (I suggest strawberries & blueberries; a handful of walnuts; 1 tsp flax seed; and half scoop of whey protein (if you have it). Blend till smooth. Oh so yummy and healthy too. Marilyn

This sounds really good and I'll try it. I do have a similar smoothie that I make and would like to share: Mix 1 small carton of vanilla or plain yogurt, 1/2 c. pomegranate juice, and 1 c. frozen mixed berries. Blend. Really good.Sue

try adding some plain yogurt in place of the milk for a thicker shake. if you add Faje or another greek yogurt you will add protien. also, try adding almonds & blend up as directed & that works as protien too.remember: 20 mins after blending this it starts to change into sugar. so for the healthiest smoothie you should drink it before 20mins has elapsed.Kat

AND, it has 8 grams of fiber total, so about 3 grams per serving. Yum-O!

It's an even better nutritional bonus if you use a non-caloric sweetener (like Splenda) instead of the sugar and swap out the milk for an 8oz. container of your favorite no-fat or low fat yogurt. As a bonus that makes it nice and creamy and thick!

The fiber just posted is for the whole recipe. For 1/3 of the recipe it would be about 2.7 g fiber.
The nutritional info is incorrect.1/2 cup of raspberries = 4.2 g fiber, and 1 cup sliced strawberries = 3.8 g fiber.
