Great Cool Down!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

On a hot day, I'm making fruit smoothies and NOT opening any soda pop can. This recipe is flexible; so instead of 1 cup milk... I use 1 cup orange juice and it's fabulous. Also, I use plain low fat vanilla yogurt and not the fancy Greek yogurt. Instead of papaya, I've used berries and this smoothie is still great! Beat the heat with this drink and serve it up to your friends when they drop by. They'll be impressed!Read more

The kids loved it!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Great way to get fruit into the family. Really easy to make and yummy. The fruit should be very ripe for sweetness. It's a... good way to use a banana that's almost too ripe to eat. I added the whole papaya, because what am I going to do with the other half? I had some mango I added, too, so extra ice to balance that out. I also used regular vanilla yogurt, which I had on hand.Read more

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I usually just do a simple smoothie with papaya, milk, ice and a dash of sugar (which is also delicious in its own right) but... this is definitely a perfect balance of flavors. I added a little light agave nectar for additional sweetness and it was perfecto.Read more

Great!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I loved this recipe it had a nice taste but it requires more ingredients to serve for a group... Also to those who think its... to bland a little mango. It makes it tart and balances with the flavor of papaya and banana.Read more

Great Texture - Bland Taste
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Not for me. I need more flavor. This tasted very bland to me. Maybe my papaya wasn't ripe?

Lite and refreshing
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This is light and refreshing. I did add 1 Tbs. of honey for sweetness as the ripe papaya that I had was not terribly sweet.
