I would venture to say that it is no secret to my regular readers and followers that I have a crazy mad sweet tooth. I have been making strides to eat healthier more often, but I do try to live by a moderation and not deprivation rule as far as my daily diet goes. To curb and satisfy those frequent sweet tooth cravings, I like to create a few lower calorie and lower fat versions of some of my dessert favorites.
And one of my fave ways to do this is with simple & creamy green smoothies.
While there are a handful of candy bars that I crave, Almond Joys often top my list. Creamy coconut & crunchy almonds coated in sweet milk chocolate...
I am pretty happy to report to you all that my Almond Joy Green Smoothie comes pretty close to the real deal. ;)
Perfect for when you need a sweet treat without overindulging...
