Strawberry Slush

2 cans (15-0z.) crushed pineapple, juice packed
3 cups orange juice
2-3 pkgs. Equal sweetener-or more to taste

In blender combine 1/3 of strawberries and un-drained pineapple and 1 package of Equal. Blend until smooth. Add 1 cup orange juice. Blend quickly on low. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Pour mixture into ice cube trays (it takes about 5 trays). Cover and freeze until solid. Refrigerate leftover mixture until ready to freeze. Remove from ice cube tray and store in plastic bag.

To Use: Place 2 or 3 cubes in a tall glass. Slowly add diet lemon-lime soda such as 7-Up or Sprite. Stir and break up with a fork.
