I love it when warm weather hits and we start uncovering from the cold. The pool will be open soon, the house will be full of friends and family and all the new flavors of Weight Watchers Ice Creams hit store shelves!!

072

In preparation for the upcoming summer we all decided it was time for an ice cream party!!

But remember, summer is coming.

That means while we all want sweets and treats, we have to watch the calories and what better way to have the best of both worlds than with Weight Watchers ice cream treats?! And thanks to Weight Watchers we had the opportunity to try all 6 of their new flavors, available in stores now!!

  • Blueberry Swirl Greek Frozen Yogurt Bars
  • Peach Swirl Greek Frozen Yogurt Bars
  • Snack Size Red Velvet Ice Cream Sandwiches
  • Cookies & Cream Dessert Bars
  • Chocolate Smoothie Frozen Yogurt Bars
  • GIANT Latte Bars

Let’s see what some of our guests had to say:

Stephanie loved the Giant Latte Bar.

I think she got a little hyped up…LOL

080

Erin went for the Cookies and Cream

087

Chuka just couldn’t be left out and said YUMMM, YUM!

090

Overall every flavor was a hit. I think my personal favorite would have to be the Snack Size Red Velvet Ice Cream Sandwiches but for an everyday treat I like the Cookies and Cream. Or the Chocolate Smoothie. Or the Giant Latte Bar. Or the Peach Swirl Greek Yogurt. Or the Blueberry Swirl Greek Yogurt. So yeah, I like them all. I just can’t help myself.

Apparently Roxie couldn’t help herself either!

You heard me right, Ice Cream Rolls! OhMyStinkinHeck, are these ever De-Licious!!! And while they are baking, you just aren’t going to believe how good your house smells. The fact that they are easier than any rolls I have ever made is just a bonus.

ice cream rolls

They are light, fluffy, taste great and can go with any meal.

Ice Cream Rolls

2 cups of softened Vanilla Ice Cream (it needs to be really soft, not quiet melted and still cold) **See note below

2 cups Self-Rising Flour

Mix the 2 ingredients together. Grease muffin tins REALLY well and fill half way. Bake on 400 degrees until lightly brown.

SERIOUSLY, that is all there is to these little bits of heaven. I told you they were super easy! And while I know it sounds weird, you are going to love how they taste. And smell. And your family is going to think you are even more impressive than receiving an unexpected xbox live subscription! I think Tate ate like 6 of these at one meal.

** You can also use other flavors of ice cream! The Oreo Cookie Ice Cream makes a great dessert. Butter Pecan and Strawberry makes for a great treat at breakfast time. Just get creative and use what ever flavor your family likes!

Hope you enjoy. Can’t wait to hear how you like them.

You scream, I scream, we all scream for Ice Cream!!!
It is getting to that time of year where we stock up on more and more of our favorite treats. We are a big ice cream family. Here in the South the days are starting to get longer and hotter and there is just nothing better than a cool treat to help cool off. The problem with loving ice cream is all of the calories and fat that come with it. Thank goodness we now have options such as the new Weight Watcher line of cool treats to help us cool off AND save calories at the same time without the loss of any flavor.
Weight Watchers Double Caramel Swirl
  • WW Snack Size Double Caramel Swirl Ice Cream Cones

This happens to be my personal favorite! But, I am a caramel lover. These snack size treats are the perfect size for a snack to cure your craving without loading you down with calories that bust your diet wide open.

Weight Watchers Vanilla Fudge Swirl

  • WW Snack Size Vanilla Fudge Swirl Ice Cream Cones

These are pretty dang good too!!

Weight Watchers Divine Triple Chocolate

  • WW Divine Triple Chocolate Dessert Bar

These are Bric’s favorite! He ate the whole box before I even got around to trying one. Of course, he loves chocolate and ice cream so he was in heaven.

Weight Watchers Cherry Cheesecake Ice Cream Sandwiches

  • WW Snack Size Cherry Cheesecake Ice Cream Sandwiches

Now these, these are Tate’s favorite. He even made smoothies out of them, which were DELICIOUS!

Tates Smoothie

Tate created the recipe, he made the smoothie and he even took a picture of it for you.

1 Weight Watchers Cherry Cheesecake Ice Cream Sandwich

3 scoops Low-fat strawberry Greek Yogurt

7 ice cubes

Allow the ice cream sandwich to soften a bit and then put all of the ingredients in the blender. Blend on low until everything is mixed well and the ice cubes are crushed really well. Makes 1 serving. Enjoy.

These products should be in stores now! You can learn more about Weight Watchers Ice Cream and other supermarket foods by becoming a fan of the Facebook page Facebook.com/WeightWatchersSupermarketFoods.

Spring is just around the corner…and summer is on it’s way. A favorite warm weather treat in my house just happens to be ICE CREAM!! With this being the year that I have decided to really work towards eating healthier and sticking to portion control I was thrilled when I found out about all of the new Weight Watchers Ice Creams hitting stores nationwide this month. They have introduced 6 new products, 4 of which are 100 calories or less! Now that is a snack I can get excited about…for myself and my family.

Weight Watchers Chocolate Dipped Strawberry bars

  • Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Dessert Bar: Low fat strawberry ice cream with a strawberry swirl dipped in milk chocolate

Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake bars

  • Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Dessert Bar: Low fat cheesecake ice cream with a raspberry swirl dipped in dark chocolate

Weight Watchers Dulce de Leche bars

  • Dark Chocolate Dulcé de Leche Dessert Bar: Low fat dulcé de leche ice cream with a caramel swirl dipped in dark chocolate

Weight Watchers Strawberry Fruit Bar

  • Strawberry Fruit Bar: Made with real fruit and an excellent source of vitamin C with 15% fewer calories and 30% less sugar than other national leading brands of fruit bars

Weight Watchers Snack Size Fudge Bars

  • Snack Size Chocolate Fudge Bar: The award-winning Chocolate Fudge Bar now in a snack size

Weight Watchers Snack Size Ice Cream Sandwiches

  • Snack Size Variety Pack of Ice Cream Sandwiches in Vanilla Bean and Dutch Chocolate

I have to say…these are GREAT! I was a little skeptical because after all, it is low calorie, low fat. But there is no sacrifice as far as taste goes. Bric even said that he thinks the fudge bars taste better than the regular ones that are full of fat, sugar and calories. And when Bric says they are good…you know they are going to be. He is the biggest ice cream junkie I have ever met. I like them all but if I had to choose just one it would be the Dulce de Leche.  I am also partial to the Strawberry Fruit Bars, they taste like biting into a fresh strawberry!

After trying all 6 varieties we found that there wasn’t one that we didn’t like. That’s saying something when every member of a family likes ALL the varieties. In other words…I Scream, You Scream, We ALL Scream for Ice Cream! Wells Enterprises, the company that makes Blue Bunny makes the Weight Watchers Ice Cream…no wonder it is so stinkin good!

Opps, I have to go. There isn’t but one Dulce de Leche bar left and it is calling my name before someone else gets to it!

“I received samples of the ice cream bars thanks to Wells Enterprises and Weight Watchers to help facilitate this review. I was in no other way compensated for this post because really…ice cream is enough. Who doesn’t love a good ice cream bar? Especially one that isn’t going to add any of the pounds that I am trying to get rid of. Seriously, it’s the best of both worlds! And I can’t forget to tell you that all opinions are those of my own because I can’t imagine anyone else wanting to use my opinions. And did you get the part that SPRING is almost here? WooHoo!!! I can’t wait.”
