I wanted it to have extra fiber, but other than that, this is a good beverage. Holiday Baker Allstar. I thought this tasted good. Pretty similar to the type I used to make when I first started making smoothies.
It kind of tasted like a melted strawberry shake and I used a frozen banana. After I tasted the recipe I added about 8 ice cubes as I always do with smoothies because I prefer them icy cold.
I also subbed the sugar with 1 packet of Truvia. Lately I have been throwing vegetables in them also and added a handful of shredded carrots but that was only to get some veggies in. It tasted great as is. I added crushed ice and left off the juice and used milk Sarah Jo. The kids thought this was great though I did have to add a little more juice.

Also, I got a brand new blender for Christmas, and was wondering, other then crushing ice and making smoothies, what other awesome thing can I make with it?
