Strawberry Cheesecake Shake

Reminds me of back in the day with all the fun Blizzard flavors.  Of course this one is much, much better for you!  I don't crave things like this very often in fact I find the longer I live this lifestyle the less I crave really rich foods.  But once in a while a craving hits and it's fun to see what happens in my kitchen then!  It's recipes like these that make it easy to live the Simple, Healthy, Tasty Lifestyle!  I simply don't feel deprived!
