This smoothie is so delicious you won't even think about how good it is for you. Don't be frightened by the tofu. If it wasn't listed here, you wouldn't even know it was in there! You can use a sugar substitute (such as Splenda®) instead of sugar, if desired.

Loved the flavor of this. The texture is very light and fluffy. I don't think the added sugar is necessary especially if you use a very ripe banana but that is personal preference. As the recipe submitter said you don't taste the tofu AT ALL so this is a good way to sneak some in your diet. That said the servings sizes are very small. The whole recipe barely made 16oz which in my opinion is the perfect servings size for 1 person not 2. I will be making this again tomorrow for breakfast! Read More

5.23.16 My strawberries were very ripe and sweet so I omitted the sugar. I also used a frozen banana because I like thicker smoothies. Another reviewer described the consistency as fluffy and I totally agree with her. The strawberry flavor really came through the yogurt gave it just a little tang and the tofu made it incredibly creamy. Only one comment this makes 2 small smoothies so if you re used to drinking a larger smoothie you may want to consider doubling the recipe. Not only does this taste good it breaks down pretty well nutritionally too. Read More

Instead of adding strawberries I added a second banana. It turned out really yummy! Read More
