Sorry to say this smoothie didnt work to well for us. I used frozen strawberries, frozen banana, and skim milk. After blended we did have a nice creamy thick smoothie but the flavor was just not there for us. Flavored yogurt to correspond with the frozen fruit chosen would be nice I think. Thank you Megan for posting your recipe, I will give this a try again at a later date. Made and reviewed for Pick A Chef Spring 2009.

This is the perfect smoothie -- tastes like a booster juice smoothie. However, unlike the other reviewers, I only added one teaspoon of sugar, which was more than adequate. I enjoy the natural sweetness of fruits, and usually prefer drinks without the added sugar. Putting more sugar would have made this taste like a bad milkshake. It was perfect the way I made it. Also, I used a four berry blend and instead of vanilla, I used what I had on hand which was blueberry yogourt. Thanks for this, I will be making it again!

The proportions of milk, yogurt and frozen fruit were perfect for us--just the right consistency for a smoothie. I've got a non-milk drinker, so I like that this has a good amount of calcium and protien. I used frozen strawbereries. Based on the previous reviews, I added a heaping tablespoon of sugar, which I found perfect and dd would have liked a little sweeter.
