Best and most Nutritious Ice Cream Treats in America

  1. Cold Stone Creamery Tart and Tangy Plain Yogurt:
This extremely healthy ice cream is only 140 calories making it a perfect frozen dessert! It is especially delicious with toppings like nuts and fruit! Here is the nutritional information with nuts as a topping:
270 calories
13 g fat (1 g saturated)
24 g sugars


      2.     Sonic Junior Banana Split:

This is a classic banana split complete with a nice fresh banana, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, strawberry sauce, pineapple sauce, and of course a cherry on top.  What makes this banana split so much healthier than most because it has one scoop of ice cream...but would you sacrifice size for nutrition? Here is the nutritional information:
200 calories
6 g fat (4.5 g saturated)
22 g sugars


       3.  Ruby Tuesday Berry Good Yogurt Parfait:

Although this isn't exactly an ice cream...this frozen treat is delicious and good for you.  With hints of fruit and lots of protein and fiber this is a dessert you are going to want to try.  Nutritional information: 
162 calories
3 g fat
26 g carbohydrates

Ice Cream Toppings

Ice cream toppings are a great way to jazz up your ice cream as well as add more flavor and texture to it. I love adding all sorts of candies and sauces to my ice cream, especially to chocolate or vanilla ice cream. Here are some of my favorite toppings:
1. Rainbow or chocolate sprinkles
2. Gummy Bears
3. Chocolate Sauce
4. Crushed Reeses or Oreos
5. M&M's
6. Marshmellows
7. Nuts
8. Jelly Beans

What kinds of toppings do you like to top your ice cream?
