Yes, it was AWESOME! The flavor of banana and walnut reminded me of banana walnut bread. The bits of walnut blended with the honey. Oh my, Oh my!! I added 1/2 cup of milk to this shake and it made exactly one full glass. Very delicious. I only shared one little sip with DH and he agreed. As a member of TOPS I always enjoy their recipes and thanks internut (Christine) for posting this one! -
I make banana smoothies almost everyday and this was a nice way to enhance the flavor. I used toasted walnuts (2 tbs) and you could really taste them. Thanks Internetnut, for posting. Roxygirl -
Wonderfully tasty!!! I did have to add a couple dashes of spring water to blend it easily. This makes 1 cup but 1 cup is not much for a smoothie. Yet filling with all that walnut. I used organic Canadian honey and organic no fat yogurt. I may make this again.

Now I post all recipes I've tried or would like to try. I'm actually making it my goal to try almost all the recipes I've posted as soon as I can. I love food and I love to eat and try different recipes. My favorite course is dessert. I love sweets! This leads me to that I did have Gastric Bypass surgery on July 25th 2008. On that note I love baking and cooking a priceless gift passed down from my grammy who I dearly loved and miss deeply. My grammy passed away 1/15/07. She was a wonderful cook and baker and taught me many things and the most valueable things was how to be a wonderful cook and baker like her. I really enjoy searching for new recipes especially here on Zaar. I'm always finding and adding to my cookbook new and exciting recipes. I also enjoy posting recipes here on Zaar as well. I really love collecting different cookbooks. I have over a 100 and growing! I collect mostly Taste Of Home & community cookbooks. The minute I get a cookbook home I sit down and I read my cookbooks from front to back like novels. I work for the Elmira City School District and YWCA. I'm raising my 8 yrs old newphew. I'm a part time college student studing Early Childhood Education, but taking time off and hoping to return soon. I live in Elmira, New York where famous writer Mark Twain did some of his writing and he once lived. I have 1 cats Samantha and 1 dog our newest member MOO MOO (my nieces dog) who are my children as I do not have any human children of my own. I lost four of my very dear children (kitty's) Callie June 2007, Miss Kitty in March 2010, my dog Angel in December 2010, and my other cat Chase in September 2011. I'm recently married on August 12th 2010. I love spending time with my niece 9 yrs old and my newphews 7 & 8 yrs old. I enjoy couponing and trading coupons. I love the internet as there's so much to look at online even though you know where I spend most of my time! I enjoy going to yard sales and estate sales every spring - fall.
