The Recipe Instructions
 

 

Ingredients

1 banana, ripe
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tbsp grenadine syrup, optional ice cubes


Directions

This delicious drink is great for kids who are lactose intolerant
because it tastes very creamy but does not contain milk. Although
optional, grenadine syrup (available in the soft drink section of
supermarkets) turns the shake a wonderful pink.

Peel banana and break into pieces. Place in blender or food
processor. Pour in pineapple juice, orange juice and grenadine syrup
(if using); blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Add ice cubes;
blend for 1 minutes or until creamy and frothy.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
