Pretty much followed your recipe (& usually leave out any ice cubes), but since I did use a large frozen banana, I did need to add 4 of the ice cubes for better consistency! Worked great for us & made for a very nice tasting smoothie! Thanks for posting the recipe! [Made & reviewed in 1-2-3 Hits Tag]

I used a frozen banana so I used no ice. It was great. Sweet but healthy :) That was great to start the day. Filling enough. Thanks Annacia :) Made for 123 hit wonders

Mmmm Annacia, this is so creamy it's almost an ice cream. Mine was also made with non fat yogurt as that was what I had on hand and my banana was out the freezer, I keep some for recipes like this. The flavour and the thickness made you feel like you were having something naughty, but it's not. This is one I will be making again, it fixed my craving for ice cream that I had. Thank you for posting. Made for Tis the season for giving 2010
