    Hi Andrina...one of my favorites is mixed berries, pineapple, protein powder and crystal light.

    1/2 cup mixed berries
    1/2 cup pineapple
    8-12 oz crystal light, any flavor
    scoop of protein powder

    I freeze together a half cup of mixed berries and a half cup of pineapple in baggies. This way, no ice is needed. As my son says, it tastes like liquid skittles. :smile:

    Do you like the Shamrock Shake from McDonalds? I experimented the other day and this is seriously so good:

    1 tbsp Sugar Free Pistachio pudding mix
    1/8 tsp mint or peppermint extract
    1/4 cup low fat cottage cheese
    1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
    2/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
    2 packets of Stevia (or to taste)
    4-5 ice cubes
    2 drops green food coloring

    Approx 145 calories and SO good! I hate cottage cheese so I was skeptical but it came out perfect.

    Mine are usually over that but if you just use fruit and veg (I use spinach and kale normally) you should stay under that.

    coconut water is 45 cals for 1 cup or you could add just enough water to make it thin enough to drink.

    mine are over because I add:
    hemp hearts
    flax seed
    flax oil
    protein powder

    If you are just using them as a snack and not a meal replacement I would just make it with fruit, veg and water/ice if there is room in the calories I would add a bit of protein powder
