Add the oatmeal, yogurt, peanut butter, malt, eggs, honey, and protein. Blend briefly, until items are partially mixed. Stop the blender and scrape the sides, if needed. Start the blender again, and slowly add the nuts, banana, carrots, and fruit. Mix briefly. With the blender still on, slowly add ice. Blend entire combination until well mixed, pausing occasionally to pulse-blend and scrape sides as needed. Drink slowly, generally taking about ½ hour to consume the entire shake. hope this helps...........michael
