Sunday, April 9, 2006 Choco-blackberry-banana smoothie posted at 4:05 PM That's right, kids; I used my Magic Bullet for the first time today. After reading through the instructions and the sample recipes, I threw together some ingredients I had on hand and came up with a pretty darn good smoothie. Here's the recipe, with nutritional info (because I love you). Choco-Blackberry-Banana Smoothie (1 serving) 4 oz blackberry yogurt (Dannon Light 'n Fit) 1 banana (mine happened to be very ripe) 1/2 of 1.61 oz. Almond Joy bar 1 cup ice 3 T skim milk I recommend spacing the ingredients out; what I did was put them in in the order listed above, which caused the ice to block the blades. I had to shake the cup and even stir the ingredients to get the Magic Bullet to process them.
