    Fat free greek yoghurt with pureed fruit stirred in. I recently had a load of apples left over (always buying fruit and never eating it!) so blitzed them with some cinnamon and threw in some yoghurt, froze it ... my goodness it was lovely and if you do it yourself so you know what is in your fruit - blooming delicious. Rhubarb and stem ginger is another good one.

    Good luck!



    mmmmm, sounds delish!

    I make my own "ice cream" with equal amounts of milk and frozen fruit. For the milk, you can even dilute it. For instance, 3 oz milk, 3 oz. water, 6 oz fruit. Put it in the blender with a few good shakes of cinnamon. If you have equal proportions (or a little less liquid) it comes out chunky like ice cream instead of smooth like a smoothie. I like to be able to eat it with a spoon. The fruits that work best are mango, pineapple and/or banana. The only sweetener I use is cinnamon. Some times I had soy nuts or dry roaster edamame. This is delicious - believe it or not I like it better than commercial frozen yogurt, and it's as healthy as you can get.



    will have to try it

    Blue Bunny Sweet Freedom Double Strawberry 1/2 cup is 90 calories. I also love the Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches.

    If you have a brookshires in your area they carry an inexpensive sugar free low fat vanilla ice cream and you can add sugar free chocolate syrup to it and fruit, or gummy candies which are fat free.

    Have you tried using frozen fruit and then pureeing them in a food processor? It comes out like delicious soft serve ice-cream but only has the calories from fruit!
