Believe it or not, this was the first time I made a homemade smoothie! I love them, but always buy them from a mall! (and they're SO expensive). My parents recently purchased a mini-like blender so I borrowed it to make this... drools I would totally pay for this in a mall. In fact, it was better... and I know exactly what was in it (FRESH ingredients). The only thing I changed was my banana wasn't frozen as I made this out of the blue and didn't plan for it. Next time I'll freeze it!! The amount of peanut butter was perfect - a hint of peanut butter, while not overwhelming the banana. It was so refreshing and smooth. And, VERY healthy. I'm going to make one again VERY soon!

    Pretty good — I think the problem for me was that I added some more water because I wanted to follow the recipe in the order it was listed, so I had to use some liquid to crush the ice other than the milk (I used soy)... it would have been better, I think, had I just dumped everything in at once! Will try that next time. Thanks for posting!

    Anu, this one is a winner! I first made it last Friday, and it was really good. This morning a light bulb went off over my head, and instead of my plain soy milk I used chocolate-flavored soy milk. The peanut butter/chocolate/banana combination is out of this world! This is going to become a habit, thanks!
