This recipe is for my Mom-in-law who has kicked herself into a whole new healthy eating lifestyle. Not only does she feel better but she looks great to boot! Just ask my Dad-in-law!
Pumpkin Pie Shake (low fat)
1 container Yoplait light vanilla yogurt
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup strong brewed Good Earth Tea - trust me!
1 packet sweetener - yellow, Splenda tastes better in my opinion
Topping
1/2 cup fat free half and half - very cold
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
If you can be patient, mix the agave with the tea and freeze the yogurt, ice tea and the pumpkin in an ice cube tray. If you're sweet tooth won't wait, use a 1/2 cup of ice.
In your blender, blend the topping ingredients until fluffy. Scoop out into a cup. Add the remaining ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a pretty cup, top with the whipped cream and enjoy!
This has about 282 calories, is almost entirely fat free and has a bit over 10 grams of protein. This is good for a sweet treat after a light dinner, or as a great start to your day as breakfast.
Yum!
