The Vanilla Cake Batter Smoothie recipe comes up as the Vegan Vanilla Lime Green Smoothie. Is it the same recipe?
Hey Leslie! No it should take you to this cake batter green smoothie. Where is this happening from? Thank you!
But, it doesn't look so apatizing to me!
I like it!! I think all the ingredients work well together
Not a bad hangover cure!! Had a few drinks last night for the first time in ages and ended up drinking two or three more than I should have. This smoothie refreshed me a lot. I forgot to take a photo though…
But I’d give it 10 out of 10 without hesitation. I added a bit more lime than was required (to get that fresh citrusy taste) and it was delicious.

I like this one. It's the kind where you almost always have the ingredients on hand, easy to drink, not too sweet. Plus, the little date bits are a fun little bonus in smoothies.
Very creamy with the addition of yogurt and a very ripe frozen banana. Not too sweet, not too tart with the lime. Refreshing!
Loved it!
