DjMaryB 10 Posted February 23, 2006 Has anybody come up with a low point version of the Shamrock Shake that McDonald's makes at this time of the year?

140karen 10 Posted February 23, 2006 Not fimiliar with that shake but the WW blizzard is delicious made with the SF FF pitachio pudding  1 cup skim milk 2 Tbsp. dry SF ff pudding mix Any flavor 2 Tbsp. Frozen cool Whip 6 ice cubes Put all in the blender and blend until thick. This is excellent with Pitachio pudding!

Guest Hailey Posted February 23, 2006 Hi! you can probably get that recipe on the copy cat website http://www.CopyKat.com they have so many great restaurant recipes on there that Hubby, and I don't even go out to dinner anymore their Olive garden recipes are wonderful as well as the chili's boneless buffalo wings a rare treat. But because you have the recipes at your finger tips you can make them ww friendly. just thought you would like to know. Hailey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
labri70 10 Posted February 23, 2006 I agree that the recipe for the WW blizzard with the pistachio pudding would probably be very close. I am going to add a dash of almond extract to mine as well.

DjMaryB 10 Posted February 23, 2006 I think I found one... haven't looked up the points yet though. Here it is: Shamrock Shake  2 cups fat free ice cream  1 cup skim milk  3 packets splenda  ¼ teaspoon mint extract  3 or 4 drops green food coloring  ½ cup ice cubes.  ----Combine all ingredients in a blender and mix on high speed until smooth.  Stop blender, stir and re-blend as necessary.  Serves 2-(12 ounces each) ~Mary~ New Grandma~October 5, 2006  SW: 259.0 CW: 181.2 GW: 140.0  Weight Loss Photo Journal http://djmaryb.tripod.com/id14.html **Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels!**  Princess Crazy-like-a-Fox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Erlas 10 Posted August 30, 2008 I am drinking this right now. I doubled it  2 cups ff milk-got both my dairy in for the day small package ff sf vanilla pudding 2 tsp vanilla 14-16 ice cubes 2 sf starlight mints 3 drops of green food coloring  Threw it all in a blender.  It is really good. I bet nobody would know the difference if you handed this to them and said it was a shamrock shake. I am a core girl so this fits in nicely. Definitely a great fix for those other not good for you shakes.....It isn't even St. Patrick's Day and I am loving it!!!!! Thanks for posting this!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gretch23 10 Posted March 19, 2014 I've made this recipe twice an it's a great "copy cat" for only 5 points plus! Way less then the ones at McDonalds! 1 cup fat free frozen Greek yogurt 4pts 1/2 cup skim milk 1 pt 2 TBLS ff 1/2 & 1/2 0pts 1/8 tsp mint extract 0 pt 4 drops green food coloring ( for fun and to look like a shamrock shake) 2 ice cubes Blend all together! It's a great treat when I'm really wanting a shamrock shake but don't want to use all my points on the real deal! .~Gretch~.
