Peanut Butter, Banana and Baileys Cheesecake Milk Shake
"This makes either one really big or two averaged sized thick milkshakes.
If you use all the reduced sugar and fat items it isn't even all that
sinful for the amount of rich and creamy milkshake you get. You could
leave out the Baileys for the kiddies but I am sure the grown ups will
appreciate it. I have also tried this with Amarula instead of Baileys
and that was really nice too. Made for RSC #12."

This was good but not our favorite. I think it may be a case of overkill on rich ingredients. The peanut butter is the predominant flavor...we couldn't taste much of anything else. My Hubby was surprised he didn't like it more as he picked this one to try because he likes all of the ingredients. Thanks for the drink and good luck in the contest! -
I was shocked that we didn't like this better, but maybe it was just us? I made this for my hubby and he didn't like it at all, sadly. (I made him take a second sip because some things just need to grow on you. But he still didn't like it at all.) So I tried it, and I kinda liked it, but knew what he was talking about. The consistency was really kinda weird, and way too much peanut butter. And we both couldn't taste the chocolate at all. I think this would be really good if the amounts were adjusted a bit. But that may just be us! So please don't be upset! I may try this again, and then adjust it to our own personal tastes. We all like different things, and this one just wasn't for us. I would recommend others to try this, though! And I really enjoyed making it! :) (*And remember, 3 stars does mean that I liked it! :) ) Thanks for sharing, and I'll give it another try! :) -
This is a refreshing and unique milkshake. You can't really tell it uses low-fat ingredients which is great. I love the addition of the Baileys for this. It makes a tasty after-dinner treat.

These days, I am trying to eat a lot less meat. So, I am trying to have as many vegetarian recipes in the week as I can manage. I have started a blog - <a href="http://weekendcarnivore.com/">Weekend Carnivore</a> where I blog about trying to eat a mostly vegetarian diet. I share a lot of my discovered recipes there. If I make one of your vegetarian recipes and I managed to take a good photo of it, chances are I will blog about it and tell everybody how much I enjoyed it.
