Raspberry Shake

Sep 8

Posted by marlyse in Favorite Recipes, Milk & Yogurt | No Comments

You can make nice milk shakes with ice shaved into it, but a really nice treat is a yogurt-milk shake:

Raspberry Yogurt-Milk Shake

Take 5 oz of yogurt, drain it over night or at least for a few hours. Add 5 oz of milk plus 1 – 3 teaspoons of Torani Raspberry sirup (depending on how artificially sweet you like it, or not).

Put this all into a glass and mix it with a whipping motion with a spoon (or use a blender if you want to clean more dishes) until well blended and airy.

This gives a really nice shake with good consistency with the very mild tartness of the yogurt underlying. Really good if you are tired of milk-ice shakes.

Day TWO

Aug 11

Posted by marlyse in Journal, Milk & Yogurt, Positive, Wins | No Comments

Almost can’t  believe it, I made it through Day ONE and am still alive and still excited about it all. And it REALLY WORKS. No hunger. Most of the time no attention on the fact that I have no food in me. The few times I thought I might be hungry, I drank some more water and the feeling would go instantly away.

Now, on Day TWO it’s already 1 PM and I do not feel deprived of anything, even though sofar I only had 2 cups of Rose Hips tea – great, even without any added sweetener! – and a small can of Diet Coke. Going now to enjoy:

Yogurt with Cinnamon

  • 4 oz of Plain Whole Yogurt
  • a sprinkle of granulated sweetener
  • dash of cinnamon.

Mix the cinnamon well with the sweetener and sprinkle over the yogurt. Enjoy.
