This recipe is great and you can modify it to make a filling breakfast. I skip the honey and add about an 1/8 cup of rolled oats. Its so good and fills me up right through lunch!

This is even better if you cut the banana in chunks and freeze it before using. Also even better to use 1 cup milk and put in in the freezer for about 45 min or intil it is slushy before making the smoothie.
I have been experimenting with smoothies lately and my 8 yr old proclaimed this "The best ever" and said we should make it every day. My one year old really enjoyed it too (I thinnned hers down with extra milk). I doubled the recipe froze the bananas to add some coolness and just blended the honey in with everything instead of drizzling it on at the end. I think I will cut the honey down next time as I though it was a tad sweet.
I changed the drink to make it more of an after dinner snack or dessert. I suggest adding a tablespoon (or more) of nutella as well as a cup of vanilla ice cream. This made it a cold frothy and slightly chocolately tasting goodie.
Having been recently diagnosed with a yeast condition in which I must stay away from sugar I've been looking for recipes without added sugar. This tasted really more food-like and not so sugary. I used old-fashioned peanut butter and 2 small ripe bananas with 2% milk. It was yummy and satisfying without making you feel bloated from lots of sugar like other smoothies! Thank you Diane.
Fantastic! I loved the texture of the crunchy peanut butter in with this oh so smooth smoothie. I used frozen banana and a little simple syrup instead of honey to sweeten (abt a teaspoon) and about double the milk to bring the smoothie to the right thickness. It was smooth thick creamy and delicious. Definitely one of my favorites.
Great! I used regular whole milk and it turned out wonderful. This will be a regular at my house!
Awesome! Can't believe I didn't think of it myself. It seems so simple and is really really good. Add 3 ice cubes to the blender to make it cool. I don't use the honey as I find that too sweet.
This is a surprisingly filling mid-morning meal. I've made this dozens of times and here are some tips: - Using a ripe frozen banana you don't really need any added sweetener so I usually skip the honey and it still tastes great. - I use almond milk (unsweetened vanilla) instead of soy which has better richer taste to it. - Add 1/4 cup of old-fashioned oats it really thickens the smoothie and makes the drink more filling too. - Experiment with different nut butters. I've also made this with almond cashew and hazelnut butter all are great but each has its own unique flavor to it. - If you're looking to watch the calories you can use a peanut powder instead of peanut butter (just make sure that peanuts are first in the ingredients list).
