Best. Dessert. EVER!

AlynnP1005

I have been trying to be creative with desserts the past little bit, and REALLY been trying to find something to kill my ice cream cravings. Since I am a lacto-ovo vegetarian, its been tough. I know there are soy and rice subsitutions out there, but the sugars in those things are nuts! So my cousin and I got together over the weekend and tore apart her kitchen trying to figure something out. This is what we came up with and MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Freeze a medium size banana. Once its frozen solid, chuck it in a magic bullet or blender. Blend till its chopped up, then add a small scoop of reduced fat Cool Whip. Blend again. Pour into a dish, add a couple sliced straberries, and some melted chocolate chips, and MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM My cousin tried melting some peanut butter and using that on it too and it was so yummy as well....but since my bf is allergic to nuts, I will stick with the strawberries and chocolate at home It felt so indulgent to eat, and it was only approx 170 calories

I love to use frozen bananas in place of ice cream!

When I blend my banana (short spurts just to break it up and not blend it down too much).... I add some ice cubes to give it more of an ice cream consistancy, a tbl or so of fat free milk and some vanilla protein powder! (this makes the treat more of a complete meal with carbs and protein) I don't blend cool whip in mine. But, on occassion, I'll squirt a little whipped cream (from the can) add some sugar free chocolate syrup and chopped almonds. Now you have an ice cream sundae! (and the almonds add good healthy fat!)
