choco peanut butter/PB2 "cheesecake" chia mousse stuff

becktoriatralala

So my doctor told me that due the my PCOS/insulin resistance, I realllly need to be even more careful with my carbs. I've been doing okay, but got a craving today. I managed to hold off until after dinner. And it was fantastic!

1/3 cup whipped cream cheese
1 scoop chocolate protein powder (I use the Complete Nutrition brand)
2 tablespoons of chocolate PB2 (powdered peanut butter)
1 tablespoon chia seets
a dash or more of unsweetend vanilla almond milk (for a better texture and for the chia seeds to have something to absorb and do their gelling)

I chilled it for about 1 hour so I could exercise and stretch. Add that to your recipe...a smidge of jogging?

Anyways, I threw it together after remembering something else similar posted on here. Enjoy! :bigsmile:

Oh, and I also added two equal packets. I am sure you can add whatever version of what ever sweetener you like, or add none at all.

Do you have calories and carbs????

sure! lemme check my diary since I logged each ingredient on its own....my diary is open as well if anyone wants to check before I get a change to post the calories, etc.

Okay, according to what I logged, here are the details:

calories: 285
carbs: 20 (thats one whole whopping carb serving woooo hooo)
fiber: 4
sugar: 5 (eh, I'll get over it)
fat: 12 (hmmm, I wonder how I could lower that - - - any suggestions? maybe fat free cream cheese?)
protein: 27 (yipeee)

a few other things -
- the protien powder I used is from Complete Nutrition, it is the "Reclaim Smart Smoothie," so if you use somthing else, that may change the numbers
- I have no idea how many calories were actually in my chia seeds. I got them bulk at a health food store. Whenever there are lots of choice, I usually pick the highest calorie option. this way if I am actual under, its no big deal.
- Oh! And 1/3 cup is equal to 5 tablespoons, which may be helpful in logging them cream cheese.

So I realized that I didn't have the correct amount of cream cheese logged. After I changed it it did alter the the calorie content etc. Just an FYI.
