Edy’s Shakes and Smoothies!

I think I’ve mentioned before that I work at a retailer.  One thing I’m known for is the fact that I love our new products.  If it’s new, I buy it and try it and make everyone else at work try it.

 

This week I tried Edy’s shakes and smoothies.  They come in 8 flavors; cookies and cream, strawberry, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry banana, mixed berry, sunrise blend and tropical.  I bought one of each flavor and made my family try them out with me.  They were $1 each at my local Wal-mart.

I personally loved the fruit flavored smoothies.  My husband liked the vanilla the best.  Strawberry was ok but not strawberry enough.  Chocolate was good and the cookies and cream is just like most cookies and cream flavors.

 

The nice thing is they are super easy to make, just add a little bit of your favorite milk and stir.  They’re easy to mix, not to hard and you can customize your consistancy.  My husband likes his thick, so he adds less milk.  I have a friend who likes Soy or almond milk and you can use that also.  My son had the great idea to spice up the chocolate with adding already chocolate milk for a double chocolatey taste.

 

They’re a great quick snack.  No mess to clean up.  The calories aren’t bad, only 170 to 270 depending on the shake or smoothie.  You can also eat them like an ice cream and not add the milk.
