best Creamy Peanut Butter Chiquita Banana Smoothie Recipe

Place all ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. Serve immediately.

*Note: this smoothie may also be made using Chiquita bananas that are not frozen. The result will not be quite as thick or cold, but equally as delicious!

Serving Suggestions: Also delicious as a soft-serve frozen dessert. After blending, pour into individual freezer-safe 1 cup serving bowls and freeze for one half hour before serving.

Variation: For a frosty version, replace the non-fat milk with low-fat milk and the yogurt for 2 cups of crushed ice. Use the ice crush setting or pulse until ice and other ingredients are well-combined. Serve immediately.

    I use Greek yogurt and a touch of honey in this recipe, it's great for breakfast or a post workout snack.

    I use Silk for almost everything. I made the best Banana Pudding with Silk and my husband didn't even know it.

    I'm allergic to milk, so anyone use other products besides milk?

    This is one of the thickest smoothies I have ever has. It almost has the consistency of brownie batter. Delicious, nonetheless, and very healthy!

    I've been making something similar for years. I like to use Greek yogurt and also add a half or whole chopped frozen unpeeled apple. I've also eaten the recipe as a frosty version with walnuts and dark chocolate chips...delicious.
