Indeed - these are great treats. The only thing to watch is the sugar overload. Sometimes these frozen fruits, especially those for pie fillings, are packed in a high sugar syrup. For those on low-cal or low-carb diets, this wouldn't work well - unless you are able to truly limit yourself to just a spoonful or three. ;)
You can actually get them without any added sugar, they are called fresh frozen those are the ones I eat. I myself am doing a low sugar low calorie diet, and when I am not on the run (which is not often) that what I eat with meals. You are right though always avoid added sugar. I really believe more so than added fat, sugar will add the pounds. Even though I love candy, it is just a bad bad bad thing.
Or you can just take fresh fruit and throw them in the freezer. My favs are grapes, sliced strawberries, or sliced bananas. Talk about a tasty treat! And there's no need to worry about added sugar.
My grandma used to give me frozen blueberries that we had picked when I was little. It's now a comfort food for me, too.
thats a cool idea.. i wonder how fresh pineapple would taste? I have some at home, maybe I'll slice it up and give it a try!
Do sliced bananas turn black when you freeze them or do you put something on them first?
I've never let them stay in the freezer long enough to find out. :lol: Just slice, throw in one of those ziploc tupperware things. A few hours later, it's cold and creamy.
I am going to try these this weekend! Thanks for sharing.
Yummy! I'm going to give it a try :)
