Tropical Smoothies
- Refrigerate fruit before preparing:
- 1-8 ounce can of crushed pineapple, no sugar added.
- 1 papaya, peeled, seeded and chunked
- 1 mango, peeled
- 10 seedless grapes
- 1/2 cup apple juice
Whirl in a blender for about a minute or two. This'll cure your craving for sweets and keep you full for several hours.
Lemon Ginger Shrub
An alternative to diet (Nutrasweet) soda. Can be used at any time or after any meal -lemons/limes are not on the fruit list. It is refreshing and thirst quenching. (a shrub was a colonial drink made with mashed fruits.) I am thinking this might do well as a sorbet or popsicle for hot summer days.
Grate 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon fresh ginger root ( I keep it frozen, lasts longer and grates easier) into a very large sundae glass, squeeze a half of a lemon into the glass, leave lemon in and mash it up a bit with a wooden spoon handle. Add 2 packets (one pack if you like less sweet) of Splenda, fill with ice and then club soda.
Coffee Concoction
Coffee Concoction
- Make a pot of strong coffee (decaf of course).
- Take one cup of crushed ice, add about 1/2 cup of coffee, about 1/4 cup of DaVinci syrup and 1/3 cup of heavy cream.
- Blend in a blender and enjoy.
- Save the rest of the coffee in the fridge for other coffee concontions. This is really good and you don't feel deprived for dessert
