To view the daily menus, click on the links following the snack list.
As a note, our favorite snack suggestion is one cup of skim milk combined with 1/4 cup of your favorite frozen fruit, 1 teaspoon of vanilla (or favorite/best accommodating) extract and a bit of Splenda if needed for sweetness.
Blend until thick and frothy.
The slim shakes are extremely filling and are a good source of nutrition. They are also fun to make! Add a tiny umbrella for added fun.
