I've tried chocolate chips, and even done peanuts through the champion at the same time. The chocolate chips don't do much (just bits of hard chocolate come out), but the peanuts were great because you end up with a kind of peanut-butter flavored banana desert. I've also tried adding in a strawberry or blueberries every once and a while and you end up with a really nice fruit treat with swirled in fruits.

You could use the screen mesh, but it just will be really messy because some of the banana will come out the bottom and some out the side. It's better to use the blank piece. You can get it cheap on ebay or something I'm sure.

Yeah, lately I've been alternating mango chunks (from Trader Joe's) and bananas, it makes a kind of mango-banana swirl that's really tasty.

@theRazdow Stay away from milk and chocolate. They, along with some other fatty animal products are the reason America is the center of obese, out of shape and diet-failers of the world.

Would this work in you vitamix?

@prowork @prowork Champion's are tanks. I bought mine in 1988 and it STILL runs although I traded up to a Norwalk two years ago. Don't worry about damaging it--just follow the manufacturer's instructions and you'll be fine.

Banana "Sorbet" = pure bananas for those who want to be technical, but still very healthy

@theRazdow I bet your a fat out of shape pig....thinking about adding chocolate....

[theRazdow]

this is clearly best for the bananas over a blender, but what about adding chocolate chips and a bit of milk, especially if the chips should only be chopped a bit. is there another machine you'd recommend? thanks

[flamingfame]

thx

I use my Omega juicer to do that from time to time. It`s really just homogenized bananas. It doesn`t have any of the ingredients that would constitute ice cream besides the banana.
