Strawberry Slushie

Hi. I know this isn't cooking but I do include this in some of my meals as dessert, while still getting my serving of fruit in. It is so easy!!

5-6 Strawberries
1 cup crushed ice
1/4 cup water
2 packets of sweetener of your choice* (I use Splenda)

Put the strawberries in the blender first, then add the sweetener, then the ice and water. Keep blending this until fine with no big chunks of ice.

*I know that sweetener is not all natural, but it is lower calorie than sugar, and is said to be fine in moderation. Please see this link about artificial sweeteners: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/artificial-sweeteners/my00073
