I have two ideas and I can’t pick between them!

Frozen Cherry Limeade
Mix one Propel Cherry Lime Calcium packet with Sprite Zero, cherry juice, and a juice of a few lines. Add ice and blend for a sweet, low-cal, healthy frozen treat to beat the summer heat!

Or…

Frozen Lemonade
Mix on Propel Lemonade Calcium packet to some Crystal light lemonade, add ice and blend! Yummy, low-cal, and a great calcium-rich treat for adults and kids!

Obviously, I’m all about the frozen drinks right now since it’s been 80 degrees since 8 a.m. here!

P.S. We could remove the “name brands” and replace with generic ones if we need to!

My husband commutes to work on his bike everyday 20 miles each way (he loves it BTW). When he gets home he gets out the blender, uses orange propel packet, water, 1 scoup of chocolate whey protien powder & 1/2 cup of orange sherbert & blends.

I like to take 3/4 Propel Lemon and add 1/4 7-up and drop in a fresh lime half and a fresh lemon half. Gives it a bubbly, spritzer feel. Next, I want to try and mix the Propel Lemonade and Berry flavors with several cut up fruits to make a non-alcholic type of Sangria!

When my son asks for a snow cone I take out my snow cone maker. Instead of using that snow cone syrup that is loaded with with lots of sugar, I use one of the lemonade or cherry lime Propel packets. I just mix it up and yummy. He loves the snow cones and I have had to make lots of them for his friends too.

I use 4 Lemonade propel packets in a white cake mix for a summery and light lemony cake. I add vanilla pudding to flavor the mix. After it’s baked, I pour a microwaved bowl of white frosting for a glazed topping effect. My kids love it.

I have found the greatest way to punch up cup cakes for summer with new flovrs. I add the grape pouches to vanilla or cream cheese icing and ice vanilla cup cakes. I like to use 3 for each can of icing but you may want to adjust to your own taste. You can use the cherry lime on key lime cup cakes or cherry chip cup cakes. It makes a simple and totally different feel to your desert.

I call my recipe \"Propello\"

There are a few ways you can do this to make it yummy and different.

1 pack of flavorless jello
1 pack of your favorite propel

Make the jello according to the directions on box. After mixing together jello package and hot water, mix in a pack of your favorite propel. Then chill in the fridge and enjoy!

*You can also choose your favorite jello flavor to match your choice of flavored propel.

*For an even healthier snack you can mix in your favorite fruit.

“Propello” is not only quick and easy to make, but healthy as well because it\’s full of calcium, antioxidant vitamins and B vitamins. Enjoy!

Looks like a lot of people have the same idea of a smoothie! I like to put in vanilla yogurt, a handful of frozen berries, some honey if I’m feeling super sweet and any of the fruity propel with calcium packets. I feel I’m getting an added boost first thing in the morning and it tastes great!

Here’s an idea for a quick and light dessert:

Frozen Bone- Building Blueberry Mango Cream Cups

1 packet mango flavored Propel with calcium
2 (6 oz) blueberry fruit on the bottom yogurt
3/4 cup fat free whipped cream topping
1/4 cup crushed graham crackers
1/2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. melted margarine
3 (6 oz) paper cups
Directions:
Stir together the Propel packet and yogurt in a medium mixing bowl. Fold in the whipped cream and set aside.
In a small bowl mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted margarine.
Spoon even amounts of the graham cracker mixture into the paper cups. Press the mixture into the bottom of the cups with a spoon or your fingers. Spoon the yogurt mixture evenly on top of each graham cracker layer. Cover the cups with plastic wrap and freeze 2 to 3 hours.
