Favorite Smoothie Combo

ah, Lassi is a good idea, thanks! And yes, peanut butter is interesting too! Wasn't a PB&banana Elvis' favorite food?

I have some honey roasted peanut butter from the machine at whole foods, add banana, maybe a drop of vanilla (and a shot of rum ), hmm, that could be good. Maybe even with cold coffee added? Or just a pouch of the starbucks instant coffee? Hmmmmm...

These are all some great tips. I'd never thought of adding peanut butter, but look forward to trying it.

Since these machines can turn nuts into nut butter, I wonder if you could just add peanuts. Granted you won't get the hydrogenated oils found in most peanut butter.

Yes they can turn nuts into butter but I wouldn't count on that level of pulverizing happening when you're making a smoothie at the same time.

Right: I sometimes add whole pecans, and they get pulverized pretty good, but not to flawless smoothness like a commercial nut butter.
