"Dubba Monkey"

My personal recipe for a post-exercise smoothie.
Drink one of these and you'll be swinging through the trees again in no time!
Ingredients:
  • 8 oz 2% milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar free ice cream
  • 2 bananas
It's 440 calories a pop and a boatload of carbs; so either share it with a friend or else make sure that you're budgeted for it.
I did some research and came up with a nutritional sheet:
