Ice cream Feen!!

Bio/organic shops usually have lower-calorie ice cream options, you could go check them out.

Personally I'm also a fan of 'nicecream' made from blended frozen bananas, though I understand the need for a real ice cream. I find it helpful as you make it on the spot and can control the portions.
Previously I put in the freezer some protein yoghurt until it's really cold and blend it with the bananas, add a splash of milk & frozen strawberries or blueberries (this way you don't have to add that much banana). Finally add either dark chocolate chips or chopped pecans (or both!). Top with some grated coconut or maple syrup for a festive feel

when I crave ice cream, I'll have frozen fruit instead.

A good homemade version, frozen strawberries, frozen bananas, a bit of jam for sweetness, vanilla protein powder, if desired (1/2 scoop), blend, comes out like soft serve. if too runny add more frozen fruit, if too thick, add a bit of milk (vanilla almond milk works well too) or more yogurt.
Instead of strawberries and jam, I sometimes add a splash of chocolate syrup and powdered peanut butter.

It's fantastic.

HaloTop is fine, the Breyers 300cal ones are fine.

PROYO makes me happy.

I like Yasso frozen greek yogurt bars. 100 calories for a large bar and very tasty! My favorite is coffee chip but I also love the chocolate chip cookie dough and mint chocolate chip. I save calories every day to enjoy one for dessert

I make my own sorbet when I want something sweet in a hurry. 1 cup of frozen fruit (strawberries and pineapple are my favorites), 1/2 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt. Add 2-3T water and blend in a food processor or blender and add 0 calorie sweetener to taste. Easy and tasty!

Halo Top is my favorite!

CoolWay mint chocolate chip is where its at for me.

Crazyravr... I just added a recipe for Chocolate Mint Grasshopper Bars. They are really good-I would love to see how you would tweak the recipe even more. They are frozen and taste like mini ice cream bars.

Buy a Yonana machine. Frozen bananas with berries, cocoa, mangos etc. I love it.

I've had every single pint of low calorie ice cream just about. Personally, I think these are the best:

Halo Top: Caramel Macchiato
Enlightened: Chocolate Peanut Butter or Cookies & Cream
Arctic Zero: Toffee Crunch Light Ice Cream (or if you can only find their traditional flavors, their peanut butter swirl chunky pint for 300 calories reminds me of polish water ice if you let it thaw)

I'm not as crazy about the Breyer's Delights or the Sweet Habit ice cream (Sweet Habit freezes WAY too dense).

I usually stock up when these brands go on sale and in the meantime I've found that a VERY satisfying alternative (for those who love coffee) is this:

-1 scoop of Quest protein powder (any flavor)
-1 cup of international delight iced coffee
-frozen banana optional, make sure it's peeled and chopped
-ice (use less ice if you use frozen banana)
Blend, and enjoy possibly one of the best protein shakes without using up a ton of calories!

Halo Top feels much more...ice milkish... than the Breyers 300 calorie a tub ones. I mean, they're both ice cream, but the Breyers is much more satisfying.

I just finished the last serving in a pint of Breyers, and sitting here watching my peke try to work out how to lick the cardboard tub. The frustrations of being a smoosh-faced doggie with deep container...

I really love yasso greek yogurt bars. Only 100 cals per bar and they have a lot of flavors. My favs are chocolate chip cookie dough and fudge brownie. They don’t taste “diet’y” either.

I’ve also be into friendly’s sundae cups. I just buy one at a time, because I don’t trust myself lmao. I dunno.......I rather have a small serving of REAL ice cream then air infused cream like halo top. I could never get into halo top and enlightened for some reason. They taste bland to me.

I agree with the comments about Halo Top so good!
Anybody else love mango-chili popsicles (mango con chili paletas) or any other fruit-based paletas? So good! It leaves you feeling full and cools you down, and your mouth feels all tingly from the chili I live in Southern California so ive always gotten them from a Mexican ice cream shop or from a paletero, but I just googled it and there are recipes online to make them yourself, which would be ideal for tracking. I saw a recipe for it that was just puréed mango, Greek yogurt and honey as the mango base. Definitely a healthier option. If you want something super low-effort you could even just put a mango in the fridge and then top with chamoy or tajin. Definitely a great way to cool down!

They don't carry the fudge brownie ones at my store! That sounds delicious...I'll have to see if I can find them elsewhere!

Try new Breyers Delight. It’s great. You’ll never touch Halotop again. Calories for pint go from 270 to 330. It tastes like ice cream; Halo Top tastes like foam. It’s not low carb but it has s low calorie and it’s really good.
