I know that I've been super MIA...school and work are just taking up all of my time! But I had to share this wonderful treat for the St. Patty's Holiday!
I love when St Patrick’s day rolls around each year because
that means that McDonald’s brings back the shamrock shake! Delish—of course! But also packed with calories! Total in the small? Over 400!
So Wednesday I decided while craving one of these tasty
treats that I could re-make it! After
all it only contains the ice cream, green coloring, and high fructose corn
syrup that is spearmint flavored, plus the whipped cream and cherry on top.
So Rene and I made a trip to the grocery store….on the list?
Almond Milk (we already had this but I’ll add it here
anyhow)
Sugar Free Vanilla Ice Cream
Spearmint Extract
Green Food coloring
1 cup almond milk (sugar free vanilla) (45 calories)
½ cup of sugar free vanilla ice cream (100 calories)
1t spearmint extract
3 drops of green food coloring
Blend—Pour into a glass and enjoy! Total
calories in one of our healthy Shamrock Shakes?
145 and perfectly delicious!
