Default Coconut Cream Pie Shake

Hi all,
I normally do low carb but I thought I would post this recipe in the cal counters b/c it was such a GOOOOODDD low cal shake. I used Hood Calorie Countdown milk in place of the skim milk. They have the same calories but a lot lower in carbs. About 6 carbs per glass with the Hood.

Serves 4 for about 130 calories each
Ingredients for this yummy Diet Shake:

4 cups of ice cold skimmed milk
1 small box of sugarfree/fatfree instant vanilla pudding
1 teaspoon of REAL vanilla extract
1 ounce of grated coconut
2-4 ice cubes
1-3 packets of Splenda or Equal if extra sweetness is desired

Blend all ingredients until thick and frothy.
Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately. Top with 2 tablespoons of whipped topping if desired.

Another low carb/milk shake option is:

1 C skim Milk
1 small box sugar free chocolate pudding
1 ripe banana (you can substitute this w/ splenda for lower carb - but the banana makes it sweet)
1/3 C Fat Free Ricotta Cheese
Ice

Blend - VERY Thick and Chocolatey!!!

Marathon Mom,
Where do you find Fat free ricotta? I haven't seen it at my local stores. I really like ricotta for desert recipes but the best I've able to find is low fat, which is still pretty high in calories.

I am soooo writing this recipe down!!!! I can't wait to try it. Thanks
Wonder if I could divide this in 4 and make one serving at a time. Think a low-cal jello pudding cup would work instead of a whole box? Hmmmm

I actually cut into 2 servings. I drink 1 cup at breakfast and refrigerate the other and drink it at night. I just cut everything in half
