A filling breakfast or post-workout recovery drink, this protein-packed smoothie tastes just like strawberry cheesecake! You can also substitute any other fruit for the strawberries, or add half the strawberries and half a different kind of fruit. (We love the classic strawberry banana combo!)Submitted by: OILPAINTER

I make these cookies on a regular basis with wheat flour and my family LOVES them. I am going to make them tonight because I am practically drooling just thinking about them! - 7/1/10

Amazing! Huge hit! Big thanks for this!
Made a few mods: Whole Wheat Flour, Golden Flaxmeal, Salt Substitute (Potassium), Smart Balance Buttery Spread, and 100% all-natural PB (unsalted). All-natural PB has less "punch" than hydrogenated PB, so I used 1 Cup. Still killer! - 11/23/09

Thanks for the feedback - I appreciate your comments. I also make this one with my young children. I think they enjoy making them more than eating them, although I can't say the same for me. :)
