if the powers that be would come with a more precise recipe, a smoothie i am able to drink despite being lactose intolerant, is simple, filling, and infinitely variable (depending what's on hand) uses this base. for a single serving:
1 carton plain or flavored yogurt (i use fat free or low fat)
1 small banana or some of a big one
unsweetened juice -- to thin the yogurt
about a cup of crushed ice (or use frozen cut-up fruit)
blend and drink.
my husband is a type-1 diabetic and he loves these! some of our favorite
combos are:
banana plus fat-free peanut butter powder
banana plus about 4-6 cut-up strawberries
pineapple chunks plus 4-6 cut-up strawberries or raspberries
mixture of cut-up strawberries, raspberries, blueberries
chocolate and coconut extracts
pineapple, strawberries, coconut extract
orange sections, coconut or chocolate extract
we also add espresso, vanilla, or mocha protein powder
to our morning and mid-day ones.

State found out. They simply cross matched her invoices for ingredients that she bought and calculated how much she would need for the amount of shakes she was preparing and came up short....
