My wife and are are zoneing, but we're getting a little tired of our 3 tried & true pre-prepared & portion-controlled snacks: ABM Banana Bread, Sears corn meal (Blueberry-version) muffins, & no-bake oatmeal cookies, so we decided to try for something different. Yesterday I tried to Zone-up an old whipped toping & yogurt recipe (from memory). Anyway, it's so great that I thought I'd pass it along in case you can help refine and/or name it:

Cream Cheese (optional)
Isolated (soy) protein powder
Whipped topping (Cool Whip lite)
Dannon Nutrisweet-type vanilla yogurt
Graham crackers
0.5 oz
2 tbsp
1 cup
1 cup
3 crackers

My zonebuddy spreadsheet calculations based on package nutritional labels (subtracting fibre from carbo) put this at 35 gm protein, 47 gm carb, and 18 gm fat Total.

line 12-compartment regular muffin tin with foil liners (for easy removal)
break graham crackers into small pieces (but not into powder, unless you prefer it that way)
melt cream cheese in microwave in mixer bowl,
mix melted cream cheese & yogurt
add whipped topping & graham cracker pieces mix at highest speed
spoon into muffin cups (fill them about 1/2 full)
freeze overnight

makes 12 "frozen yogurt snacks" at about 1/2 block (38 calories) each! If you try this, have a similar recipe, or know what to call this, please let me know.
Thanks,
Jim
