SNACK ATTACKS


Hi!

So I decided to tell you about late night snacking. What I prepared today was some watermelon coolers and attempted to also include fruit smoothies but it took so long with the watermelon coolers, I think we will save for tomorrow. I came up with this idea to stop eating heavy rich creamy foods that will add on unwanted pounds even though you know you're gonna get up in the morning and do an good workout. Although it still doesn't hurt to get what those taste buds long for. Let's call it a cheat snack! I'm gonna provide you with recipes that I create myself and others that I find in my favorite magazines. So some of the recipes will be very a source to help you with weight loss or weight management.That's why I came up with tonight's cool creation.

So you will need to get a seedless watermelon, and put your creativity together when you cut it, i suggest triangle pyramids but dont cut it too pointy at the top because you will need to cut about 1/4 off the top and scoop the middle out about two so that you can add your filling. Fillings can be a yogurt, jello, or to be really creative add some of the watermelon extra pieces (the cut off tops or what is salvageable from the watermelon itself and crush it adds a fruit juice (your choice, me I tried V8 berry medley), some crushed pineapples, and freeze it just a little bit and then add to the center and top with some diced apples, red and green grapes and its just another similar version to a fruit bowl but a little different.

Now the fruit smoothies I do have the recipe that I found In magazine First for Women and I will include it below, now it calls for whey protein so if your gonna serve this to children omit this item.
In a blender, combine 1c frozen raspberries, 1/2 cup diced seedless watermelon, 1/4 c pomegranate juice and 1scoop of whey protein or substitute yogurt. Puree 30 sec. or until smooth. Sweeten with honey to taste, if desired.
