LOVE this recipe! I like to make mine with 1/3 cup of oatmeal to give it texture and protein. Add a few coffee beans to make a mocha-choco-peanut wake-up smoothie. Yummm!!! Thanks for submitting this recipe! :) Read More

Made this exactly as written...including 2 packs of stevia. I was a bit disapponted especially from all the great reviews (Makes it hard when most people make their own adjustments/changes and then rate) Anyway I was very excited to try this so at first taste I was surprised at how bland it was. Because I didnt want to throw it out I added another stevia packet and that helped a little so I added one more (4 total) and added more vanilla extract (1 tsp) total and that was better. I will probably make again but will continue to use more Sweetner to make more tasty. Read More

This was yummy. The flavor reminded me of a peanut butter cup. The texture though was a little icy. I have an almost similar recipe I found on Pinterest using whole milk regular sugar and non-fat dry milk powder. I actually like this one better made lighter and with the peanut butter. I did make a few small changes. I halved the recipe and got 1 large serving. I do not care for whey protein powder in any flavor so I subbed vanilla slim fast powder. It is a little sweeter. I added the optional Stevia and didn't bother with the 1 Tblsp of heavy cream because I didn't have it. That small amount in any smoothie or drink is barely detectable anyhow from my experience.

I printed this recipe yesterday stopped at the grocery store to get a few ingredients in the POURING rain----it was sooooo worth it!!! I made the smoothies as soon as I got home!!! I used unsweetened almond vanilla milk and left out the vanilla extract. My girls and I found this recipe to be filling and they were up early this morning putting their own spin on it-like adding half a banana! I started a high protein low-carb lifestyle 2 years ago. I'm thankful to have come across this recipe for a low-carb smoothie that tastes great and my family enjoys as much as I do! Read More

I found a quick and easy way to do this. I used a Milk Chocolate flavored Atkins drink in place of the milk and cocoa powder and it was fantastic! I didn't have heavy cream so I used lite cool whip. I will try the heavy cream next time though 'cause I picked some up today! (I also forgot the vanilla - didn't matter was still delicious!) Read More

Average. The PB taste was very subtle. I prefer my shakes a bit creamier- next time I will had half a banana per serving. I did sub greek yogurt for the heavy cream and omitted the stevia as my protein powder has stevia in it already. Read More
