Secretly Healthy Frosty

Its finally summer- Hurray! At least up here in Canada, its finally starting to feel like summer. After weeks of wind and rain, its the first sunny day in a long time! And what better way to celebrate the warm weather than with a nice chocolate frosty!

Too bad for those who have dairy allergies, or anyone trying to keep that healthy attitude, celebrating is just not an option. Until now!

This frosty here tastes just like the good ol'Wendy's one; but the secret is, that it is healthy! Shhhh.

With a traditional small chocolate frosty weighing in at 300 calories with 42 grams of sugar, I'm sure we all can agree that this one is a much healthier choice.

Secretly Healthy Frosty (light)

1 Cup. unsweetened almond milk
1 frozen banana (size will just vary the thickness)
1 TBSP. cocoa
1/2 tsp. flaxseed
5-6 ice cubes

Blend all together until smooth & Enjoy!

Alternatives: 1) Can use any type of milk, the almond makes it vegan and ideal for those with dairy allergies

2) The flaxseed can be subbed for chia or deleted all together. I found it gave it that extra health kick I enjoy!

3) Can use more or less ice cubes. Personally I found 5-6 to be the perfect consistency where I could still drink it, or use a spoon if I desire.
