Guilt Free Deliciousness

With Summer in full swing, it's hot and I mean H.O.T. and it is just going to get hotter.

At the beginning of summer Zach and I found out that Sno Biz had sugar free snow cones. We thought we were in heaven. Well we were for a few days. We started realizing that this would have to be a treat and not an everyday thing because of the calories and the cost of the yummy, delicious snow cone.

One Sunday morning Zach and I got up.... early as usual... did our cardio and then decided that we would take both of our cars to get the oil changed at Wal-Mart before church.

HUGE MISTAKE!!!! We were there FOR-E-VER it felt like. We literally had enough time to run home drop our groceries off at the house and head to church. BUT... walking around Wal-Mart we did stumble across this incredible find!


A do-it yourself snow cone!


Are you kidding me?!?!?!

We instantly grabbed this little cutie and made its new home on our counter! We have found so many different ways to make 0 Calorie, 0 Fat, 0 Sugar snow cones!!!! Music to my ears!!!

One thing we do is buy these 0 Calorie 2 liter drinks from Wal-Mart. They come in all flavors. Cherry Limeade, Sparkling Lemonade, Strawberry Lemonade and a Peach flavor. We pour whichever flavor we want into ice cube trays. Let it freeze and the next day put some of those ice cubes in your snow cone machine and there you go!

We also use these 0 calorie syrups from Wal-Mart or Sam's. Devinci(sp) syrups are great to pour over any cup full of shaved ice.

We have definitely got our moneys worth from this little green machine. I recommend anyone who is looking for a cold treat during these HOT summer days to invest in one!
