Fabulous Summer Treats!
Fabulous Summer Treats!
Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwiches - In my opinion, the best thing ever invented for those of us watching our waistlines! One of these delicious treats is only 2 WW points. Visit the Skinny Cow website and sign up for the newsletter to get valuable coupons.
Ice Cold Ice Water - nothing is better on a hot summer day than a cold glass of water, filled to the brim with ice and topped off with a lemon slice. So refreshing!
Strawberry Shortcake made with Biscuits - nothing says summer like my mom's simple strawberry shortcake using a Bisquick biscuit, covering it with juicy sugar-y strawberries and a dollop of homemade whipped cream!
Gelato - Italy's version of ice cream (read about it here). I fell in love with this cold treat when I was studying abroad in Spain. Then I found even better gelato when my family went to Italy over Thanksgiving several years ago. Even though it was the middle of winter, I managed to find a gelato shop every day!
I simply must know...
what are some of your favorite summer treats?!

First off - why are you up at 6am?!?! I am still out, dead to the world at that time! :)
My favorites are: water ice, gelatos and those 100% sugar push up pops (the ones that are like 100 for $1!).
Have a good one!

I love gelato! My favorite summer treats are Starbucks Iced Green Tea Lemonades, mojitos, and strawberry Frozfruits.

Skinny cow makes the BEST chocolate truffle bars. They don't even taste like they're only 2 pts! I also love the strawberry smoothies from Panera as a summer treat.
Skinny Cow is my savior! Their stuff is sooo good! And I'm going to have to try the biscuit shortcake.
Mine are ice cream and grape salad. And of course, sweet tea! It just tastes better in the summer...
