Had this in Dubia. You can cut the calories by using 2 dates, one banana, and almond milk. I have one every day. High in minerals.

This was really awesome. I was at a lost what to do with these dates I purchased in bulk. Now I know! It is also a great substitute for cereal for my picky toddler.

Yummy!! DD2 (5 months) even liked it! I used Balkan yogurt, water to be healthier & because of lactose intolerance, date syrup to taste, the bananas & ice.

OH my gosh, this is just wonderful!!!!! So rich and creamy tasting and so easy to fix. I'll be having this often and I highly recommend. Thank you so much for sharing.

This is fantastic!! It seems so rich and decadent--yet it's surprisingly low in fat; and the banana-date combination is totally delicious! I scaled the recipe down to one serving, used frozen banana slices, and omitted the ice cubes. Mmmmmmm!! The only thing that could make this smoothie better is to be in Laguna Beach while drinking it! :) Thanks for a great recipe, Queen uh Cuisine!!
