Make all kinds of “nice cream” we have a Yonana and I love it, but a blender could work too I think?

@nidorf2 I’m really interested in trying this. Do you like the texture it produces? Can you add liquids?  

---

@westcott I have one, love it. You don’t need to add liquids. Makes ice cream or sorbet with any frozen fruits. My favorite is mango and strawberry yummy , check your local thrift store you can usually pick one up for 5-8$.  

---

@missing thank you. I ordered one tonight. I have a dairy allergy so this will make a great little dessert maker ❤️

---

@westcott I love the texture. You don’t add liquid. You can use many fruits, but most of the recipes will pair with banana to make it creamy.  

Answer 4

Mix it with frozen whip cream for ‘ice cream’  

Answer 5

Add a sprinkle of Davinci or Torani Sugar free syrups. In a bind I will break down and use snow cone syrup (coconut or Pina colada etc) to flavor mine. Snow cone syrup is 5 points for 1 oz/ 1 jigger. Which is WAY TO MUCH SYRUP, you only need a dash. I order Davinci & Torani, and snow cone syrups online to use year round. So they are always in our house. I use them in oatmeal too.  

Answer 6

I use it frozen as ice cubes for my water or ice tea

Answer 7

Do you cut the fruit up and blend or what

Answer 8

I buy what fresh fruit is on sale. A few pieces of other. I wash, cut it up, and freeze some.  

Answer 9

I put it in my oatmeal or in muffins

Answer 10

Don't thaw it. or just a bit so that it is not rock hard. Mix it with yogurt. and eat it semi-fredo! Thawed frozen fruit is kind of soggy.  

Answer 11

Sugar free cool whip

Answer 12

You can always buy the canned fruit.  

Answer 13

Smoothies, over ice cream, yogurt,  

Answer 14

I mix partially thawed raspberries w Greek yogurt and truvia

Answer 15

I heat it and add to Greek yogurt, I’ve also cooked with lakano sweetener in a pan. Added some oats. Non. So many options

Answer 16

I eat it with whipped cream, fat free Greek yogurt, sprinkled with cinnamon.  

Answer 17

Why is it we think nothing of spending $3-4 on a bag of chips or a pkg of cookies but can't bring ourselves to spend that much on a bag of apples or a few bananas? Doesn't make sense to me

Comments

@singer well that was a helpful comment

Answer 18

It’s good in oatmeal or on plain yogurt.  

Answer 19

I let it defrost and add it to Greek Plain Nonfat Yogurt with a little Swerve or sweetener of your choice. I throw in a 1/4-1/2 cup of Honey Bunches of Os for a crunch factor Yum! Depending on your cereal choice and amount, it's about 2 or 3 points.  

Answer 20

Make yogurt clouds on a cookie sheet and refreeze ,

---

@miserly sorry take some low fat yogurt of choice and take a spoonful and put on a cookie sheet with some fruit in it . Then freeze cookie sheet and bag them in as many as you want at a time and place back into freezer as you want . it’s a nice little snack .  

Answer 21

Yes, get frozen berries, defrost in a small bowl, add a little almond milk, then squirt with sf whipped cream.  

Answer 22

Make popsicles

Comments

@vagrant is there a recipe for that ?  

---

@irreverence5 I don't have a particular recipe, I usually toss frozen berries and either Juice or Greek Yogurt into a blender until I see a smoothie consistency, then freeze in a popsicle mold

---

@vagrant that sounds perfect. Thank you for sharing.  

Answer 23

The fruits in some bags are large so I cut them smaller. Then I add a little diet sweetener and some fresh fruits to it.  

Answer 24

I love frozen fruit with flavoured yogurt on top. I let it sit for a bit post supper and then it’s kinda like a frozen dessert/icecream

Answer 25

I love frozen blueberries! I love them with cottage cheese

Answer 26

I make smoothies out of the frozen fruit with yogurt

Answer 27

Buy grapes when they’re on sale and freeze. Love to eat them frozen!  

Answer 28

I just microwave a cupful for a few seconds and eat them still slightly frozen so it's like a sorbet  

Answer 29

I put it on top of plain nonfat Greek yogurt the night before. As it that’s it makes a “syrup” that sweetened the yogurt. Top with your favorite granola

Answer 30

I’ve taken a whole bag of frozen berries and simmered on the stove for 30 mins or so with a little lemon juice so it’s like a compote- delicious warm or cold on its own or lovely in yogurt!  

Answer 31

Frozen grapes leave them out for 5-10 kins before eating them and they're like little balls of sorbet we prefer these now to normal grapes xx

Answer 32

Parfaits made the evening before.  

Answer 33

Yes put them in gin beautiful x

Answer 34

Sometimes I will sprinkle sugar free jello powder over frozen blueberries or grapes when I’m craving sour patch kids  

Answer 35

Do you have a produce co-op around? We have bountiful baskets and it is really great and inexpensive

Answer 36

I put mine in the blender right out of the freezer and add a diet juice blend that’s 5 calories a serving. Ocean Spray makes a good cranberry grape and a cranberry pineapple blend. It makes a nice slush depending on how much juice you add.

Answer 40

I love frozen fruit with yogurt on top. I microwave a bowl of fruit 1-2 minutes depending on how much I put in the bowl then put the yogurt on top. My goal is to have it thaw slightly but still be a bit icy. Soooo good with yogurt! It tastes like a frosty sweet treat. I have tried frozen blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, mango and pineapple- all good. Especially if you put a couple different types of fruit in the bowl.  

Answer 41

I put yogurt on frozen berries leave it on the counter then post supper eat it and the yogurt is a little frozen and the berries are too. so it’s like an ice cream treat

Answer 42

I love frozen blueberries with Fage 0% So good
