"Giada, I was working out at the gym and watched your show while on the treadmill. I made the recipe when I got home because I had a ton of basil and thought it would be a way to use some of it. I absolutely love this smoothie, and so does my husband. I can't wait to make it again:-)"

"This is without a doubt the best banana bread I have ever made. It took longer to bake than indicated. I cooked it for 1hour 10 min. I placed a sheet of non stick foil on top when it was as brown as I like.. which of course, stopped it from browning too much. My husband and I have not been able to stop eating it:-) I am sure the remainder will freeze well... if there is any left.
