Hi all,

Found this in a Good Housekeeping Magazine I liked it wanted to share....

Matthew Fox's Monkey Smoothie

1/2 c. soy milk
2 Tbsp. protein powder
2 Tbsp. peanut butter
2 Tbsp. honey ( I used sugar free )
2 ripe med. bananas, cut up
1 c. ice cubes

place all ingredients in blender; cover and blend until smooth. Makes 2 1/3 cups
Celadon
Ohh! That sounds so good but I can't do the bananas cause they just don't like me. Too much sugar. Enjoy one for me too!

This sounds yummy! I am not really into soymilk. I like my milk to come from lactose free cows, ie Lactaid FF Milk. If I made this I would use 8 oz. of lactaid ff milk and 1 scoop of protein powder and skip the honey altogether. That is just me.


But, this does sound great and I can't wait to try it! Thanks for posting this!

FOUND THIS ON LINE:
Sugar free honey?
It doesn't seem possible -- sugar-free honey? This is the first time I've ever heard of it! But according to Indian news source, Nerve, bees are able to produce sugar-free herbal honey by feeding on the leaves of the stevia plant. Stevia is marketed as natural sweetener, an alternative to sugar.

According to Nerve, sugar-free honey reduces cravings for sugar and fat, which appeals to people who don't want to gain weight but still want to enjoy the taste of honey. Additionally, sugar-free honey controls blood sugar levels and high blood pressure. Thus, it is in high demand by diabetics.
