I have the Nutribullet Pro 900. Here is one of the recipes I love that is almost like yours:

Using the tall cup-

1 banana (frozen pieces)

2 Tablespoons almond butter

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

2 Tablespoons cacao nibs

Dash of cinnamon

Almond milk to the max line

Mine are just about the same as yours.

Basics I always use ( in my Ninja)

1-2 bananas

greek yogurt plain

orange juice

a few ice cubes

1 or 2 other kinds of fruit (mango, strawberries, blueberries, pineapple)

a packet of Truvia

Sometimes I throw in a bit of almond milk, almond butter, flaxseed oil, a couple brazil nuts

I don't measure, so sometimes they are thicker than other times. Guess I should be more creative and/or precise!

i make them either with strawberries or blueberries and the accompanying flavors of yogurt. Makes a nice change at breakfast time.

I don't have any favorites, I just throw whatever I have in the fridge into the Vitamix. Some come out really good, others not so great.

'What the heck' are cacao nibs? I've often wondered, seeing that ingredient in several recipes. Smile

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).
