I thought it was delicous! I added a spoonful of strawberry-banana yogurt, and some vanilla extract. It made it even better! ^_^

My daughter loves for us to make things together in the kitchen and we can't wait to make this. We will put some strawberry NesQuik to sweeten it and use the ice cream to thicken. Great family fun!

 Anthony (Ohio) says:
I like it a bit creamier so i added vanilla yogurt and replaced the milk with vanilla almond milk. Gives it a creamier texture and sweetens it up without having to add all the sugar.

 Erin (Michigan) says:
Pretty good! Wish I had ice cream to add to improve thickness though. Added orange juice instead of milk though in the second batch I made. Very much improved in taste!

 Angelique (Wisconsin) says:
It was pretty good but I used a frozen ripe banana so you don't have to use ice or sugar because it makes it sweeter and I used very vanilla soy milk and a handful of blueberries. Delicious!

Glad I have all the ingredients already! I love how people say add ice cream...isn't that defeating the purpose. Hey lets take a perfectly nutritious snack and add some sugar and fat, hence the obesity of america.

If you want to make it thicker, add vanilla yogurt - it makes it creamier and sweeter :) I always put yoghurt in smoothies!

I thought it was amazing..and if your adding ice cream you might as well a milkshake because that is the recipe for a milkshake to add ice cream

Delicious!!!!!

 Marilena (United Kingdom) says:
Very good! A variation I make is with 5-6 ripe strawberries, 2 small bananas, 1 and 1/2 cup of condensed milk (carnation, etc.) and a tiny bit of brown sugar.. The outcome is very thick, so depending on your taste, you can add ice (condensed milk dilutes in water from the ice cubes, regular milk is too watery in my opinion). Thank you!!

I replaced the sugar with 4 tbsp. of honey, I think that made it sweeter than it would have been with the sugar.

Added yogurt to thicken it. Ice cream would probably make it too sweet in my opinion. And yogurt definitely keeps it on the healthy side :)
