Amy Peters is my nutritionist as everyone is well aware by now (hopefully you haven't been living under a rock and just now figuring this out?)
Anyway, she told me she is going to put all her recipes in a book. Well, I think I have found my contribution. I can't wait to share this one with her. Hopefully she gives me a little cred in her published cook book!!!
Misha's Mock Caramel Frappuccino

Now, here is the best part. This drink has less calories than a Starbuck's light version of the same drink - in a TALL glass (equivalent to the small), and my version fills the biggest plastic cup I own. Now THAT is an amazing dessert drink or snack drink.
I'm a genius. Knew I had a chemical engineering degree for something.
