Guess you can just call me a "smoothie" junkie! I liked this, and am always looking for combos that add simplicity, and contrast in flavor. As usual, I tried this as posted first. However, to almost every shake/smoothie I make, I add organic canned beans, cottage cheese, and ground flax seeds. This recipe did not let me down. I must admit, the banana/grape combo are a bit of contrast to the usual. Having said that, I always "prepare" my taste buds mentally for the extrordinaire. No let down here! I look at nutrition first. Second, I look at how it can be enhanced. For the squimish on this base, I'd recommend simply adding about 2 Tbsp. peanut butter to the mix. Adds protein and fibre, and makes a real combo of the classic PB& banana as well as the PB & grape jelly sandwiches we all ate as kids. Good basic recipe! -
I made this last night because I was looking for a quick snack. I have to say that it was not my favorite. The combo of the banana & grape juice was weird. Next time I will just omit the banana. Sorry! -
It was a great and very simple change to plain banana shake and the kids love the colour of it. well done

I have taught myself how to cook since college and my advice about cooking is to keep practicing, try all sorts of cookbooks and different recipes, and don't be afraid to fail--you'll always learn something from it (of course, I'm a teacher so it makes sense that I believe that). I moved to Dallas 3 years ago and I love the ready availability of genuine Mexican food in the area. It's the one kind of cuisine I've never tried to make myself because the restaurants in my area are so good. I love movies, music from the 70's and 80's, animals, and beautiful weather.
