Very yummy, but had to add a couple handfuls of ice to really get a smoothie consistency. Also used Chocolate Slimfast powder and turned it into a breakfast smoothie.

Pretty good! The flavor was unlike any smoothie I've had before!I didn't have frozen strawberries so I just used non-frozen ones and added about a cup of ice. i also didn't have chocolate mix drink so I just subbed in a tbsp of cocoa powder and a tbsp of sugar. I also used whole milk instead of low fat which made it creamier. Thanks for a great recipe and I can't wait to try it with frozen strawberries!

Excellent and low fat/low calorie drink! I substituted the low fat milk for non fat milk and switched the two tablespoons of sugar for 3 packets of Splenda. Yummy!

In all my shakes.. I replace half of the milk with the carnation evaporated milk. It gives it a little kick... Try it next time!!

I used Carnation rich hot chocolate powder mix and frozen strawberries that were already sweetened and pureed so I left out the additional sugar. This was pretty good, but I didn't care for the vanilla in there, it just didn't seem to go with the rest of the flavors.

I woke up this morning craving a banana smoothie but didn't have ice or yogurt - went on allrecipes on my phone, found this recipe - had all the ingredients (used chocolate carnation instant breakfast powder for the chocolate) and threw them in my magic bullet and it was amaaazing!! My two toddlers and I sucked it down so fast I had to make 2 more servings!

Simple, on-hand ingredients, easy to make, and easy to modify for your tastes. I used a whole banana and fresh strawberries and supplemented with a few ice cubes with great results. This one will become a mainstay for us.

This was good- not great, but I would probably make again. I used pure baking cocoa so maybe next time when I have hot cocoa powder it will taste a little better???
