Sometimes I need something that is sweet, not a fruit and not a Weight Watchers frozen bar (although I DO love most of them!) When I was on the 17 Day Diet, I had a Kefir Smoothie almost daily, which met a requirement of that diet.
t was on this diet that I learned to like Kefir (find it in any grocery store near the yogurt) and starting freezing strawberries, blueberries and bananas before they went bad and used them in my smoothies. Fresh will work too, but the drink is more akin to a milk shake if you use frozen. In the off season, all grocery stores carry a fruit medley in the frozen section. I love the package that has all tropical fruit: pineapple, mango, papaya etc.
Tonight I took that basic idea and made a close cousin to that Smoothie I used to make ...but more Weight Watcher's friendly and just as delicious! Here's how to make it.
In a blender, add:
- 1/2 cup Kefir (or fat free plain yogurt)
- 1 cup frozen strawberries (or other frozen fruit)
- 1/2 to 1 cup diet Lemon Lime Soda
- 1/4 cup Splenda
Blend until it is the consistency you like, adding soda to thin. Makes a tall glassful.
The best part of this frozen concoction is that it is just 2 Weight Watcher's points!
Enjoy!
