11 Reviews of Banana Smoothie

I was tempted at first to add another fruit [or chocolate!] to this drink, but decided to stick with the bananas only & am glad I did! At least I know that the banana can stand on its own, so to speak! years ago I used to mash up ripe bananas, then freeze it before eating it topped with hot fudge! Now I have another way to DRINK my bananas! Thanks for the great drink!

Yummy smoothie, it made a delicious and healthy breakfast for me this morning. I will make again often because they are ingredients I usually always have on hand. (Made for holiday tag).

This made a nice thick smoothie.If you've had enough of banana bread, this is a perfect way to use over ripe bananas. Just slice them and put them in the freezer. Then the bananas will be ready whenever you are. I found the taste of the non-fat milk powder to be a little strong (if that is possible?) so I added a little more vanilla. I went to reach for the splenda to make it a little sweeter, and somehow ended up with the chocolate sauce- and then it spilled into my healthy smoothie !

Yum! This was very good. I like a thicker smoothie & this fit the bill! I did add 1 tsp of honey to make it sweeter, but next time I may not add it, because it was pretty sweet on its own! Thanks for posting Karen!

Excellent! Healthy, yummy, and a great way to get rid of some overripe bananas. My kids loved this one, too. I've made this smoothie several times now and find it has just the right combination of ingredients for breakfast or an afternoon treat. I'll have to try the graham cracker crumbs as a variation, too. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I didn't have any frozen banana `s and wish I did so this would have been thicker more like a milk shake. And I didn't want to wait for them to freeze. BUT this was still good. The only change was I used nonfat milk. I used Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla, Bourbon Extract for the vanilla. Thank you!

I really enjoyed this shake... So did my boys. I love that it is low in calories and is healthy. I've got this one saved Karen, thank you so much for this wonderful smoothie. I like that you took this recipe and made it your own and it is delicious... It's a keeper in my book just the way you got it. ~V

Very tasty! It makes a nice, thick smoothie. The ingredients are the type I usually have on hand, too. I will definitely make this again. Thanks Karen67!

I always seem to have an extra banana around that I throw in the freezer because it is going bad. This is a great way to help use up all those bananas. I loved that this smoothie was nice and thick and not too sweet. Strong banana and vanilla flavors. As noted, a great way to get calcium into the diet--fast and easy with all the ingredients things we tend to have around anyway. Thanks Karen for a winner!

Mmm, loved it, great Banana Smoothie. I added a tbsp of flax and used not fat milk. Very nice breakfast, thanks.
