Frosty Friday

3/21/14

     Happy Friday! As we are slowly melting out of a polar vortex, also known as Chicago, I thought I would share this super simple smoothie recipe I came upon. For the past month I have had the constant craving for a Wendy's Frosty. Unfortunately, there is not one in walking distance of my apartment or work. It also doesn't help that Wendy's has been taunting me with their commercials on TV. So what's a girl to do? Make her own of course!

     Not only did I find a frosty-like recipe, but it's also healthy and low in calories. Whether you are craving chocolate, trying to stay healthy, or both...you need blend this up!

Ingredients:

1/2-1 Frozen Banana
1 Cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
3 Tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
Handful of Ice Cubes

Directions:
Throw all of your ingredients into your blender and blend until it has a thick, icy consistency. You may want to add extra cocoa powder or milk for more or less flavor.


Bananas make the texture creamy without the calories from ice cream


It even works if you have the worst blender ever (like I do!)


Pour yourself a tall glass of creamy deliciousness and cheers to the start of spring!
