Enjoy a delightful healthy dessert made simply from fruit. The Ninja CREAMi is a game changer when it comes to healthy desserts.

It’s amazing how you can take such simple ingredients and “spin” them into an incredibly enjoyable dessert that is healthy, low calorie density and weight loss friendly.
Use up that leftover watermelon and turn it into something scrumptious.
The juice of 1 lime adds a nice boost of flavor. I didn’t use the zest but you can if you wish.
Once it is blended pour it into your CREAMi pint container.
I scraped the foam from the top before freezing the pint. Make sure to freeze for a full 24 hours so the contents are frozen all the way through.
Be sure to label which flavor the pint is. Once frozen it can be difficult to tell what the contents are.
I like to have it set out for about 10 minutes at room temperature before spinning. If it isn’t creamy after the first spin put the pint back on the machine and use the Re-Spin button.
We made a short little video to show you how to make this refreshing treat!
If you have extra watermelon – lime leftover after filling your CREAMi pint, add some crushed ice and sparkling water for a refreshing drink.

What I love about the Ninja Creami is that we can make small batches of frozen treats with customized flavors and mixins. It’s easy to create unique concoctions that we each love.
I agree with you! It’s an awesome machine.
