<br>ASK HUNGRY GIRL 
<br>
<br>HG, 
<br>
<br>I was recently introduced to Starbucks' Strawberries & Cr&egrave;me Frappuccino 
<br>Blended Cr&egrave;me. I went online and found out that a Tall (12 oz.) with whip 
<br>has 11 grams of fat and over 400 calories (POINTS&reg; value 9*). Can you 
<br>suggest a way to make it lower in calories and fat? PLEASE!?! 
<br>
<br>Frappuccino Freak  
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Dear Frappuccino Freak, 
<br>
<br>I love your question because it gives me the PERFECT excuse to break out 
<br>one of my favorite recipes EVER -- our Strawberry Cloud! A while back we 
<br>created the PERFECT swap for this creamy berry Frap. Our version has just 
<br>119 calories and 1g fat (POINTS&reg; value 2*). It ROCKS, and it's so easy to 
<br>make!!! Check it out... 
<br>
<br>Strawberry Cloud 
<br>
<br>PER SERVING (entire recipe): 119 calories, 1g fat, 102mg sodium, 21g carbs, 
<br>2g fiber, 14g sugars, 4g protein -- POINTS&reg; value 2* 
<br>
<br>Ingredients: 
<br>2/3 cup frozen strawberries (plain -- NOT in syrup!) 
<br>5 oz. light vanilla soymilk
<br>2 tsp. Fat Free French Vanilla Coffee-mate powder (dissolved in an oz. of 
<br>warm water) 
<br>1 oz. Torani Sugar Free Strawberry Syrup
<br>3 no-calorie sweetener packets (like Splenda)
<br>3 large ice cubes 
<br>2 tbsp. Fat Free Reddi-wip 
<br>
<br>Directions: 
<br>Place all of the ingredients in a blender, except for the Reddi-wip. Blend on 
<br>high speed for 30 - 45 seconds. Pour, and top with the Reddi-wip. 
<br>
<br>Strawberrylicious!

<br>Dear Hungry Girl, 
<br>
<br>Please help! I love creamy deli salads made with real mayonnaise, but due 
<br>to health issues (from having too much fat in my diet) I have had to give up 
<br>using that stuff. Do you have any suggestions for what I can use instead? 
<br>Thank you. 
<br>
<br>Mayo Maven  
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Dear Mayo Maven, 
<br>
<br>I'm happy to report that you can still enjoy deli salads without all the fat. In 
<br>my opinion, using full-fat mayo in those types of salads is nothing but a huge 
<br>waste of calories anyway. I never EVER use full-fat mayo -- just ONE 
<br>tablespoon alone has 100 calories and 11g fat (POINTS&reg; value 3*). And I 
<br>NEVER eat pre-mixed tuna, egg, or chicken salad. It's just too risky, with all 
<br>the fatty mayo that gets added. (Subway's 6" tuna sub has 530 calories, 31g 
<br>fat, and a POINTS&reg; value of 12*. Craziness!) But since I like those salads 
<br>too, I make 'em at home with fat-free mayo and more. Here are some of my 
<br>favorite mix-ins and the reasons why I love 'em: 
<br>
<br>Dijonnaise - This is, hands down, my #1 go-to swap for full-fat mayo. It has 
<br>just 15 calories and <1g fat per tablespoon, but it's creamy and has a nice 
<br>mild mustard kick. 
<br>
<br>Fat-Free Mayo - I use this stuff a lot as well (only around 10 calories per 
<br>tablespoon), but since it doesn't taste as good as the real thing, I often 
<br>combine it with any of the other items on this list. It's GREAT that way! 
<br>
<br>Plain Fat-Free Greek Yogurt - This stuff is so thick and creamy, it works 
<br>PERFECTLY mixed with tuna, chicken, salmon, etc. Fage Total 0% is the best, 
<br>and it has less than 10 calories per tablespoon. It's a little tart, but I love it. I 
<br>usually use it as a base and then mix in spices and other goodies. But even 
<br>straight, it is an AWESOME swap for fatty mayo. 
<br>
<br>Mustards - There are PLENTY of flavored mustards that are fantastic. Take 
<br>risks and try some. Just read the labels carefully (most are very low in 
<br>calories and fat-free, but there are some crazy exceptions out there!). 
<br>
<br>Hot Sauces & More - Believe it or not, Frank's RedHot is an awesome addition 
<br>to your deli salads. Give it a whirl! Another obvious favorite of mine is Vivi's 
<br>Original Sauce, which is good mixed with pretty much anything (I am 
<br>obsessed with it).
