Loved this drink. I used the vanilla whey. 1/2 cup skim milk, 1 scoop pwd. and 5 big frozen strawberries. Also, used the natural p.b. Wonderfully thick and rich. Didn't even need the splenda. Glad I found this and glad you posted. Thanks Alot~I"ll be making this alot! -
turned out a bit too thick, I had to add extra milk. I also added more berries as it was a little too peanut-buttery for me. -
Loved it - it helped me run a 5K this morning! Taste the PB but not the J though. Next time I'll use less peanut butter and/or add more berries. I skipped the Splenda but it was plenty sweet,and this just took a couple minutes total to make.

I love to cook, and I love to eat! I have lost over 40lbs in the 1st 6 months of 2007 by following the Body for Life program of diet and exercise. I have put together 6 cookbooks to help those that are trying to get or stay fit find healthy and great tasting recipes!
Always remember to use low-fat, less calorie substitutes for any recipes that list higher fat or calorie ingredents (i.e. Milk = Skim Milk, Sugar = Splenda, Butter = Smart Balance, etc.). You really dont have to give up good taste to eat better and lose weight!
Enjoy!
