Low Carb Protein Ice Cream? Yep.

[endirio]

This is perfect for when you're craving something sweet but don't want any of those bad carbs and sugars.


- 1 scoop protein powder (chocolate/rocky road flavor tastes better)
- 2 Tbsp natural peanut butter
- Enough almond milk to stir up a thicker consistency with ingredients in a bowl.
- A little splenda for extra sweetness, and a dash of cinnamon.

Mix all this up in a plastic bowl till all the powder and PB are combined and everything is one color. Freeze for about 40-50 minutes.

Enjoy!

Okay, you've turned into a mad scientist in that kitchen of yours. Have you ever considered making a blog of your recipes or an e-book? You might be sitting on a gold mine.

I'll think about trying this, but I can't use the peanut butter as I'm allergic. I'll see what can be done with almond butter as there shouldn't be a difference. The taste of the almond milk doesn't clash with the butter taste?

Do you think using a blender or a Magic Bullet would mix it better than by hand?

I think I'll go for butter pecan and throw some pecans in it.

This sounds pretty good. I can try it out. Then I won't feel guilty and I get the protein I need.

Hahaha, thanks man, but most of these recipes are not mine. I find them on the internet and mess around and add some of my own modifications after trying them out. I'd probably consider compiling them into an e-book but I don't have much time.
And no, there's no clash between almond milk or butter. You could use regular milk if you're ok with some extra calories and nutrients, although almond is obviously better because it has no cholesterol or lactose. Sure, you could mix it up with anything. It only takes 2 minutes to mix with a regular spoon or a stick blender so I guess it will take a minute with a regular blender.

Glad you guys are enjoying this

Well, I'm thinking since I'll be using almond butter versus peanut and almond milk there shouldn't be too much of a clash in tastes.

I might just end up trying this, but it doesn't sound tasty to me as I'm reading it. I don't know why. haha! The ingredients sound good, but I don't know about all together! Thanks though.

I assure you, it takes like regular ice cream. If you had chocolate/rocky road protein powder before that's exactly what the base of it tastes like. Rocky Road is actually an ice cream flavour first, before being a protein flavour. So anyway, if this isn't tasy I'll send you a bucket of real ice cream as compensation

Haha! Deal! I'll see if I can try it out sometime soon.

I tried some of that. It wasn't as sweet as I expected but it was still pretty darn tasty.
