RECIPE BY: Dreamer in Ontario

This is from a very old Weight Watchers pamphlet for Week One of the diet. I love this milk shake. It's surprisingly thick and tasty.

    Very nice treat when you're trying to watch your waistline. Ingredients always on hand, easy to make, not much clean up and a good source of low-fat calcium- thanks for the great "gotta have something sweet" solution. Added 1 tbs low sugar chocolate syrup-mmmm, yummy!

    This is great ice cold for a low calorie shake. But it is not as thick as a milk shake. Added a frozen banana will thicken it more. I did use 5 ice cubes and vanilla extract.

    As stated, it ain't DQ, but it IS tasty and easy. I used instant Italian Espresso powder and Splenda. This lends itself to any number of flavor combos. I think orange extract and unsweetened cocoa powder would be really good. This satisfied my mid-morning "sweet tooth".

    I have used this one for years. It's really good if you add 4-5 frozen pineapple chunks to it!
