It was great, really good flavor! I added some whey protein and I will experiment with adding other fruits and vegetables.	Submitted by: BROKEN_ANGEL08 (1/20/13) report inappropriate
Artificial sugars are very dangerous for the body , even worse for children to consume. There are hundreds of supported documents on this , if you are not aware yet... The fruit has enough sugar, not to mention the yogurt and milk :)	Submitted by: KYANNA1 (10/9/12) report inappropriate
This was very easy to make, and tasted very good with frozen blueberries. I used greek yogurt for extra protein. Thanks for sharing this recipe!	Submitted by: VANALSTYNE01 (10/5/12) report inappropriate
This is a great basic recipe. I use Costco's Blueberries. I also use fat free plain yogurt, pure vanilla extract, & stevia. Add some wheat germ for extra nutrition. My family loves this :D	Submitted by: HEALTHYDEBRA (8/9/12) report inappropriate
Smoothies are great - you can make so many variations of this recipe! I wanted to add whey protein and only had cinnamon flavor in stock this morning. So I used nonfat vanilla yogurt, light vanilla soy milk, unsweetened applesauce and the whey protein! I could have used a little more apple flavor.

I make this as one of my go to breakfast smoothies every morning, but instead of the milk, I use Unsweetened Almond Milk. It is lower in calories than skim, and adds a nice balance with the berries. I also add a scoop of Vanilla Whey Protein Powder. I've tried all kinds of berries and combos.	Submitted by: SHARON10002 (6/25/12) report inappropriate
awsome smoothie My oldest dosent like yogurt but she liked this. I choose Mango berry tango frozen fruit and added 2% milk Good evening snack. Next time I think ill add flexseed or wheatgrem for the extra fiber.	Submitted by: DOINGME02 (6/18/12) report inappropriate
I am not a "smoothie" enthusiast, but this was delicious. The only thing we changed is to use fat free yogurt and make it into two servings. For that thick frozen consistency, make sure either your banana or berries are frozen. Love this for breakfast!	Submitted by: KSSONRISA (4/27/12) report inappropriate

I drink this almost every morning, but I skip the milk and banana, use a little water and add a scoop of fiber. Tastes great and gets me through the morning!	Submitted by: GOAL_OF_145 (4/4/12) report inappropriate
I added ground flax seed and used greek yogurt for more protein.	Submitted by: REGNUR617 (3/25/12) report inappropriate
I still don't get it.... Everyone uses Yogurt when tofu is so much better. No Tofu taste and more protein and no sugar.... Try it, you'll be surprised and pleased I'll bet....	Submitted by: RETURNTOTHIN (3/11/12) report inappropriate
You can also put in a Tbs of instant fat free, sugar free pudding mix-vanilla or chocolate to any smoothie drink to make it really thick & filling! its delicious & you cant taste any artificial sweetener taste to it at all.	Submitted by: RPRE1948 (3/6/12) report inappropriate
I make a variation of this every day. I use plain non-fat yogurt and I add a scoop of protein powder.	Submitted by: JENRIPPS (3/1/12) report inappropriate
By using vanilla Greek yogurt instead of low fat yogurt of any kind, you will omit the artificial sweeteners which are harmful to the body and increases the protein.....	Submitted by: LIDGE68 (1/24/12) report inappropriate
I am new to this site and this is one of the treats I made for me and the family...but since my hubby is Lactose intolerant I had to use fat free lactose milk and fat free greek vanilla yogurt.....WE LOVE IT!	Submitted by: MELISSA_WAR77 (1/6/12) report inappropriate
Did have to add a bit of stevia to sweeten it up a bit. Also added one scoop of protein powder to fill me up.	Submitted by: MNMOMMA1 (11/16/11) report inappropriate
I make a similar smoothie too! Love it! Instead of sugar though I use agave.	Submitted by: CKINNEER (10/4/11) report inappropriate
I like this as a basic recipe, I do add protein powder, vanilla, and substitute nonfat cottage cheese for the yogurt I like the suggestion to add a handful of greens. I can't wait to try that!	Submitted by: SHERRI1002 (8/27/11) report inappropriate
I make the same smoothie after my workout sometimes.. no banana, and use tropicana50 light orange juice (1/2 cup) instead of milk. Also a scoop of vanilla whey protein on strength training days. Thanks!	Submitted by: TMORTON321 (8/6/11) report inappropriate
I LOVE smoothies! I throw in 4 ice cubes, 3/4 cup low fat milk, 3/4 cup Chobani vanilla greek yogurt, 2 teaspoons of whey protein, two teaspoons of natural peanut butter, a medium banana and 1/2 cup frozen unsweetened strawberries! One of my favorites!!	Submitted by: ELC521 (8/6/11) report inappropriate
I make almost this same exact recipe except I use plain yogurt because its less calories, and add some vanilla extract. Yummy!	Submitted by: JORDANA84 (7/31/11) report inappropriate
I make a combo of ground flax, wheat germ, and oat bran and throw in 2 along w/protein powder, frozen fruit and non-fat greek yogurt. I totally agree w/other submitter about adding spinach or kale. Great way to use up nutritious greens and once blended no one knows better!	Submitted by: GREATDESTINY (6/19/11) report inappropriate
I would use Greek yogurt instead & fresh berries like strawberries. Also 1/2 a medium banana as well as a few whole grains for added fiber. A perfect b'fast idea!!!	Submitted by: SLIM_DEMI (6/16/11) report inappropriate
I use nonfat Greek yogurt because I don't like any of the flavored yogurts. I use agave nectar to sweeten - IF NECESSARY. Usually the berries & banana are sweet enough. Taste before adding any sweetener.	Submitted by: AZURE-SKY (6/4/11) report inappropriate
I make a smoothie just like this everyday for lunch! Today it was 3/4 c. frozen strawberries, 3/4 c. milk, and 6 oz of fat free light banana cream pie yogurt. So good and so filing!	Submitted by: BRYNLUKE (5/25/11) report inappropriate
I like to use low-fat plain or vanilla yogurt, banana, and berries with skim milk to thin it. I have also tried adding a T of peanut butter or honey. If the berries are frozen, it's good too.	Submitted by: PEGSTOLZ (5/5/11) report inappropriate
