Chocolate Soy Banana Smoothie
"Chocolate soy milk and frozen bananas whipped up together in a blender make a quick, tasty smoothie that my family loves. It is healthy and easy...two great "ingredients" for a great recipie. If you are not a soy fan, don't worry. It doesn't taste anything like soy according to my husband (who does NOT eat soy). The amount is for one, but we usually triple it since there are three of us. If you need more servings, you should do it in two batches if you have an average sized blender."

Quick and easy! I always have a little chocolate soy milk around as a special treat. This kicks it up to a whole new level! Simply DEEE-licious!!!...and healthy too! Thanks for sharing! -
Very easy and good! I made this for Pick A Chef '08. We used about 2 bananas and three cups of milk and while I was worried that the kids wouldn't like the flax seeds, but they didn't even notice them. What a great way to get more vitamens, omega 3 fatty acids, and potassium into kids! We will be making alot of these! -
One of my favorite treats. I add Ovaltine (dry chocolate milk mix) to plain soy 'cause I seldom have chocolate soy in the house.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I enjoy cooking the most when there is time to experiment. I substitute all kinds of ingredients to use what I have and avoid extra trips to the store. Growing up, I watched my mom cook. She never measured anything, but cooked by feel and approximations. I am known to measure quite a bit, but since I substitute so much, my dishes never taste the same way twice. I try to avoid packaged food and cook from scratch whenever possible.
Since I dislike grocery shopping in city supermarkets (too small and crowded), I shop online for groceries every 3-4 weeks and have them delivered by the store in a refrigerated truck. I just pick up milk and produce and in between. I love the local farmers markets around the city each summer and fall, too!
