I also have a disclaimer in that I have never really measured anything as I make my smoothies. Eyeballing works well because it is all about what you like, and how you like it to taste! I included two nut butters because I just picked up the peanut butter with flax and chia seeds from TJ's, and its so yummy, and I had to share!
