Minty Delicious Shake

 

This is a refreshing, minty and delicious shake.  I've been enjoying all different smoothies lately...what a great way to have a delicious dessert and get a serving of dairy.  The spinach gives it a beautiful vibrant green color, without adding a spinach-y taste.  Trust me...it's really good!  I bet this would taste just as delicious with a chocolate shake packet.  If you don't have any Weight Watchers Smoothie packets, you can use a 100 calorie whey protein powder, just check to see how the Points Plus values may be affected. 

Servings: 2

Works with SFT: Yes
Points Plus: 3, including whipped cream and cherries! And it counts as a dairy serving!

Ingredients:

• 1 packet Weight Watchers French Vanilla Smoothie
• 1/2 cup plain, nonfat yogurt
• 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese
• 1/4 tsp mint extract
• 12oz fresh, cold water
• 12 ice cubes
• 1 cup fresh spinach
• 4 T Cool Whip Fat Free
• 4 maraschino cherries

Directions:

Place all ingredients, except spinach, Cool Whip, and cherries in a blender.  Blend until smooth.  Add spinach and blend until combined and beautiful bright green.  Don't add the spinach at the beginning...it can bruise and brown...NOT PRETTY!

Pour into two tall 16oz pint glasses.  Top each with 2 T Cool Whip and 2 cherries. Enjoy!
