I just came up with this recipe and posted it here on ccp. My mom had a whole HUGE watermelon that I knew that she and I would be the only ones eating, so I needed a way of eating a lot of it. After all, watermelon is one of the most filling (in my opinion) and low-cal fruits out there.

The link to it is: http://caloriecount.about.com/recipe/116849.h tml but I'll put it in this post as well. Note: the serving is HUGE. I could barely finish the whole thing, but it's so yummy!


For when you want a fairly low-cal, refreshing treat. I add 2 tsp. of Benefiber to it to sneak a little more fiber into my diet.

Ingredients

1 cup watermelon balls 2 medium strawberries 1/2 cup 2% milk 1/8 tsp. vanilla extract 1/2 tsp. sugar

Directions

I recommend freezing the watermelon balls before making. Place all ingredients in blender and turn on until everything is completely blended together.

 sounds good.  I am going to try it when I get some watermellon


Let me know how you like it! I'm tempted to go make myself another one :)

OMG that sounds SOOO delicious. I'm going out tomorrow to get me a watermellon and some strawberries. Curse you! WinkLOL, and thanks for the recipe!

Yum! I was just looking for something like this. :)

I don't even like watermelon but that looks wonderful.  Laughing

I just made this... maybe I did something wrong but it was GROSS. :(  Too milky flavored.

Chub, maybe add more watermelon? I've made this a few times and it always has a really great watermelon flavor.

Thanks... I will try it.

I hope it fares better! It's really great once you get it right :) It took me a good 20 minutes to get the right watermelon-to-milk ratio.
