If you are like me when you are trying to lose weight is when you crave everything that is bad for you. Thanks for a friends inspiration I came up with this Strawberry mock-shake that (in my opinion) taste just like a McDonalds Milk Shake for 180 calories. For the same size, a 12oz milk shake at McDonalds you would be consuming 550 calories WOW that is a 370 calorie difference. 

Although initially you might think 180 is a lot when you are having a craving and could be using up 550 calories 180 doesn’t look so bad.

This is delicious! I had everyone in the kitchen ooing and awing over how great this mock shake is. It’s a milkshake in a way, but it’s a whole lot better for you!!


Ingredients:
  • 2 tbsp. frozen cool-whip (just estimate)
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 heaping tbsp. vanilla pudding (not sugar free)
  • 6 frozen whole strawberries
  • 2 packs Truvia (stevia)
Directions:
Blend! Then top with cool whip or stawberries!
