Are you in the mood for a "frugal" good time? Are you watching your calorie/fat intake? Do you have a sweet tooth? DO YOU LIKE ICE CREAM?!!! Well, I have JUST the PERFECT place to go AND it's afordable too. I don't know about you, but since I am always "watching" my calorie intake (the Weight Watcher in me) I usually find myself in situations where a few of us go out for ice cream and I do not include myself in the festivities of eating because the calorie/fat intake is too high for me, and I choose not to use my points on it. Well, I'm tellin' you have the PERFECT place.

Have you heard of Ben's Yogurt-n-Deli, out here in the Valley? He has only been open for a month or so, but if you haven't been to Ben's, I'm tellin' ya "get your bootay in that car and go on over." You are missing out! For the yogurt part, here are a few of the details......

It is all frozen yogurt.....
~It is self-serve.
~You can choose from a variety of flavors.
~Depending on the frozen yogurt you choose, there is low-fat (they might all be low-fat), non-fat, and SUGAR-FREE!
~His menu says "Yogurt flavors rotate, please as for flavors of the day." (I had peanut brickle yesterday and it was SOOOOOOOO good).
~You have different sizes to choose from (you can even sample the flavors to see which one you would like the best).
~After you are done choosing your flavor of yogurt, you can put your own toppings on. He has fruit (I saw..mango, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and even kiwi). He also has a couple of syrups (I think caramel and choloate). Then, he has different candies and nuts you can choose from for toppings, if you choose.

So, you wanna know the price? He charges by the ounce. It is only $0.40 an ounce! A special promo that he is running right now is even better. If you go on Sunday, it is only $0.30 an ounce. Are you kidding me?! Wow, what a deal! You can get whatever you want...if you just want yogurt, then just get yogurt. If you just want fruit, then get fruit. If you just want candy and nut toppings, then just get candy and nut toppings. Whatever you choose, you only pay the $0.30 or $0.40.

My family and I went yesterday and we were very pleased. The environment is VERY comfortable and the prices are great. I HIGHLY recommend you check it out. You will not be dissappointed. The cost for ALL us in my family (there are five of us) was $10 and some change! You can't beat that for going out for "ice cream." I figured my serving of yogurt was ONLY 2 points! I CAN DEFINITELY DEAL WITH THAT! I am going back......

For the deli part, he has....
~Build your own sandwiches
~Grilled Sandwiches
~Specialty Sandwiches
~Paninis
~Wraps
~Salads
~Soup-n-Salad

**Of note, these are my own opinions. I am not being paid to say this. I just really really liked the place.

Thanks!

Please let me know what you think, if you go check it out!
