2 containers light cool whip
2 boxes (I used one box +2 bags-so 8 bags total) 100 Calorie packs Oreo wafer cookies
5 bananas
I used an 8X8 pan- and I know I could have used another layer on my "cake" but I ran out of banana's and cool whip! lol All you do if place a thin layer of cool whip on the bottom and sides of the pan-
Then place the cookie wafters- top with more cool whip & a layer of bananas-
keep layering...
Then on the top make a thicker layer of cool whip and crush a few of the cookie wafers to sprinkle on top. :)
Cover & place in freezer over night or 5-6 hours. Remove from freezer and let stand about an hour before serving. The cool whip makes the cookies soggy and soft and tastes so good! Even though I made it the healthier way I think my Nan would be proud of me. :) Everyone loved it too! :)
Dinner last night was delicious! kabob, grilled chicken, tadik, grilled veggies, corn, & salad.
Breakfast this AM- Fage 0% w/ a lil honey & a small banana smashed into the cup. lol
Went to the pool did 1 hour 19 min and burned 424 calories! Whoohoooo! I love seeing the number over 400!! Ever since I added the weights to my ankles I get a better burn result. I needed to work my body up to that point though. My back is a little sore today, but I'm going to do some stretches to make sure I don't stiffen up later.
Lunch looked like a HOW MANY VEGGIES CAN I GET IN MEAL HAHA! Let's see- cucumber, carrots, tomatoes, jicama, and spinach if you count it on the sandwich! lol I used some of the leftover ranch that I made with the greek yogurt to dip my veggies in. It was delicious and I enjoyed the turkey sandwich on the bagel thin too! :)
Just me tonight for dinner and I have a container of leftover goodies from last night at Sean's parents that I am looking forward to enjoying! :)
TGIF! Hope everyone has a great Friday! Anyone have FUN plans for the weekend?? We might try to get out of here on Sunday- just to do something different than or usual shopping chores. Hummm but then I am left to do it on my own on Monday :( boo! lol Naw, It will be ok!
Have a good one!
BYE! :)
A similar cake was very popular among lots of friends' families when I was growing up! Your version looks delicious :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE your cake!!! I bet your Nan would be proud of your cake, too! I can't wait to try it. =)
ReplyDeleteThis weekend...errands. Hopefully a trip to the Farmer's Market. *cross fingers*

Hugs!
Mmm grilled corn, it's that time of year again!
ReplyDeleteThat sandwich looks very tempting, I'm on a total addiction of sandwiches lately.
That cake looks really good TJ. I was going to run it through the recipe builder but didn't know if it was 8oz or 12oz containers of Cool Whip.
ReplyDeleteDen and I both have Sunday off too and if it's nice we'll do something too. We want to take a trip through the wine country here....just waiting for a lovely day to do that. Stock up on our MI wines that we can't get in FL.
Cake looks super yummy...
ReplyDeleteYou've seriously got me addicted to those everything bagel thins. I eat one almost every day...
Yum on the cake!
ReplyDeleteThis is one weekend that will be one designated for rest AGAIN...I am hoping these will be coming to an end soon!
Cake looks yum, maybe I will make a smaller version over the weekend and see if the kids approve.
ReplyDeleteYour lunch also looks yum as usual :)
Your blog just inspires me so much, TJ. I love the way you just keep pressing on and incorporating your WW plan into all aspects of your days.
ReplyDeleteThe cake looks like a lean version of one I used to make with cool whip, pudding, bananas and crushed up (I think) vanilla wafers. Oh, and cream cheese mixed in with some component...it was called "Better Than Sex", tee hee.
I'm off to the gym! Have a great weekend.
The ice box cake sounds delicious! Good job in checking the points!
